Favorite Western Swing lines?

This is an extension of the Rick McRae post below. Since I've been working on his stuff, I've been in the Western Swing/Jazz realm, and been really enjoying it. Here's my favorite western swing line. Anyone else got any?

Ignore the //////. They're just there so I can get the chord names in the proper place

G, very swinging

Here's a movable one

It's written in Bb but it can be played anywhere. I am really liking double-stops these days. This one can be used in a country song as well. The vertical bars are the beats, for timing. I hope this all lines up and is intelligible.
