Susan-Marie, see if you can get your guitarist to come up with something. Many songs I play I have NEVER heard played by anyone, and are usually just lyrics with chords written in a block off to the side. If your guitarist has good skills with chords, I'm sure he can come up with some small little thing based on the chords being played. Even just a small temporary change of rhythm or strumming style , or a picked arpeggio instead of a strum, can change it up just enough to keep it interesting.
