To learn how to write a 12-bar blues song, study the structure of traditional blues songs, which typically follow a pattern of three lines repeated over 12 bars. Listen to blues music to understand the rhythm and feel of the genre, and practice writing lyrics that express emotions and experiences common in blues music, such as heartache or struggle. Experiment with different chord progressions and melodies to create your own unique blues song.

To write a 12 bar blues song, follow a simple chord progression using the I, IV, and V chords in a 12-bar structure.

It started when the Africans were sold as slaves to America. The Africans brought their syncopated rhythm from Africa and combined this syncopation with words to produce work songs. As the slaves worked, they sung these songs. In these work songs, the Africans used a concept called call and repeat, the foundation of the twelve bar blues. Eventually, the work songs evolved into what we call the twelve bar blues.
