i know the first part of stairway to heaven and a few other random little things.
any sugestions would help
pink floyd - wish you were here
led zeppelin - black dog
oar - crazy game of poker
cky - 96 quite bitter beings
learn anything by elliott smith
he is a geniuse, and a lot of his stuff isnt too difficult. some it of is very difficult tho, so it will keep ypu coming back as you progress or whatever.
ben harper - burn one down
beatles - lucy in the sky with diamonds, here comes the sun
stairway to heaven always seems to be popular with beginners. Try that.
Alice in Chain's Songs are good songs to learn. most of them are pretty mellow and easy to learn. when i started to learn guitar it took maybe a week of pratice to learn how to play all the way Though "Man in a Box".
ive learn most of stairway to heaven already. thanks for the suggestions ill look them up.
Hey guys think some of the songs may be a little bit more complex than what he is after.
Dude are you concentrating on playing tabs or chords?
You should check out
Time of your life - Green Day
Hurt - Johnny Cash
Blister in the Sun - Violent Femmes
Hide your love away - The Beatles

Are we talking plucking (Rhythm) Chords Or Power Chords?
Learn the chords, then progress onto songs...
I play bass and guitar, i picked it up fairly easily..
An few easy ones to start with are:
Smoke On The Water by Deep Purple.
More than a feeling by bostin.
The trooper by Iron Maiden.
Shinobi vs Dragonninja by Lostprofits.
Smells like teen spirit by Nirvana.
Smothered by Spineshank.
i just started a few days ago too. try learning "pirate love" by the band "johnny thunders"
pink floyd - goodbye blue sky. love playing that song!
thats the main one i was thinking of but couldnt remember. nirvana smells like teen spirit is a great one too. im trying to think of some of the first songs i learned how to play(which included smoke on the water). blur - song 2 was the first song i learned how to play(talk about easy).Quote:

Thats a good site for learners yoda! :)
I think the first song i EVER played on a guitar was Smoke On The Water.
I can play Blur, song 2 as well lol...
Put it this way, you have to practise to become good at anything, and its very true when talking about guitars, you'll fuck up alot, everyone does, i did hell of alot, but if you put the time in, then goddamn it, you'll be great in no time lol...
I've been practising bass for about 3 hours a day for god knows how many years, and now i can play anything i want, and i can listen to a song and just get my bass and play it....
And the guitarist in my band can do the most difficult solos i have ever heard behind his head like Hendrix.
It take practise :)
