The first thing that I do when I have to arrange a song is to try to think, without the guitar, what melodies and ideas could work. I trust in my mind and ears.. I sing melodies over the song and then transpose them to my guitar. I don't think on scales of chords when I'm doing this... I just think in sounds...
another thing that you can do is just jamming using the pentatonic scale and try to find cool ideas. Record yourself when you are doing it if it's possible... -------------------- My lessons

Listen to simliar bands, or songs,
Take ideas from them, no one really cares if it's a bit similar, and best yet, no one really notices -------------------- Visit my:

All great advices mentioned above. Probably the best advice I can give you is the one that is already mentioned: Keep it simple
Don't overdo it, just rely on a strong melody and something you can play perfectly while standing and on stage. The melody you make should be catchy. Use pentatonic scale, and work from there, it will be easier. Try to land on the roots of the chords you have, and it will be great. Record it and listen to it. If it sounds catchy, it's great. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

Also think about adding some arpeggios - you want to fill out what the rhythm guitar is doing without fighting it!
