What I try to do is imagine some nonsense lyrics, and play the notes I would sing. This helps
me to come up with some semblance of a melody line...!!!

Please Jim, don't take this as negative criticism... It's just an effort on my part to try
and help a fellow musician... You have the dexterity in your fingers to be able to pull
off some amazing stuff... I can hear it...!!!
