Using the 4 chord would imply a new exposition - maybe a bridge or something - or perhaps just the next 4 bars (E.G. basic blues 1111 4411 5411)

As this is an ending we aren't looking for a new exposition...

--=-- My credo: If it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing - just ask my missus, she'll tell ya laugh --=--
You're only paranoid if you're wrong!
