How to find good songs to learn on guitar?
You’d be surprised how many guitar songs for beginners could rank as the most recognizable, if not the best guitar songs of all time. If you’re a beginner, start looking for clues right away by making note of the chords you can play and just search online. However, if you know E major, A major, and D major, why not try this?
Wild Thing – The Troggs
chords : This song has 3 basic chords (E major, A major and D major) which are usually the first 3 chords you would learn in a guitar course. So, you should be able to play this very soon after you start learning.
Strumming: The strumming is basic and you can play the entire song using only down strokes. Not only that, there’s a good amount of space between some of the chords so you can get your fingers in the right place, just in time.
Even if this song isn’t your first style choice, it’s worth knowing because it’s so simple and one of those good songs to play for people when they’re in the mood to party.
If you want something a bit more challenging (but not too much), try:
Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) – Green Day
chords: Very simple acoustic rock guitar chords (G, C, E minor, and D) combine nicely to make this a classic that seems to be gaining popularity over time.
Strumming: The chord changes are quicker and the song is higher in tempo, but it’s very easy to listen to the original song to get guidance on the guitar parts and timing because it’s a very acoustic track. Interestingly, the song becomes easier as it progresses because the strumming becomes less complicated as the down and up strokes become fuller. Once you get into the groove, though, it all sounds great, so don’t worry about being a perfectionist from day one.
These are 2 popular and easy acoustic guitar songs you can play today and are fantastic examples of a beginner and beginner/intermediate skill level.
