Beth asked:


And if at all possible a song that could be sung along to. I am teaching myself and i am getting pretty good but i need a easy song. i have learned smoke on water by deep purple and seven nation army by white stripes. so anything like that would work great!

    How about House of the Rising Sun?

    Most of the early Neil Diamond tunes could be played with E / A / and D. That’s what kind of gave them their charm

    That ought to keep you busy for a couple of days!

    I know that there’s about 5 Bush songs that are all power chords and easy as hell; comedown, glycerine, etc. Either that or just about any Green Day song…especially that one where he sings “I’m having trouble trying sleep.., counting sheep but running out…on my own here we go…”

    That song is annoyingly easy also. :)

    Go to ultimate-guitar.com and just flip through pages of tabs and find easy stuff that you like. That’s what I did!

    Go back to the sixties. Johnny B Goode (Chuck Berry) Sloop John B (Beach Boys) Twist & Shout, Roll Over Beethoven, I Saw Her Standing There, (Beatles). All these use 3 chords -A D E- except for Sloop John B which is in G (G C D). Get into the 12-bar blues (if ur not already)., Hound Dog, Blue Suede Shoes - they’re all good. Hope this helps. PS Try Tambourine Man

    You can find these songs, and more at MusicNotes.com
    They are usually around $5 or less per song. Or you can buy a book from them.
    But the songs are downloadable, and you just print them out!
