Welcome.
Click on PUBLIC BOOKS at top of page and you will find an index of all types of songs already listed. It takes a while to find your way around here but it's a great place to hang out and make friends around the world. AL

Welcome to Chordie.  For us to help you, we need to know what kind of music you prefer and what chords you already know.  It is easier to do what deadstring explained.  Check through the public books and find songs that are easiest for you.

Hello mate,

Good to know we have an acoustic playing Metalica fan here.  You'll be amazed how easy Metalica songs are to play on an acoustic and you'll be even more amazed how good they sound.  When you've stripped their songs back without bass, drums and lead guitar (and the odd orchestra) you'll find songs that could have been written for acoustic, I suspect they were written on an acoustic!

Creeping Death and Fade to Black spring to mind, Fade to Black being the easier.  Don't worry with the lead intros or solos for know just get the chords nailed and keep it slow.

Just experiment and have a look through the tabs through chordie!

Let me know if you find any gems.

Epiphone EJ200  -  Epiphone SG400  -  Fender Strat Blacktop.
Blackstar HT 40 Club  -  Vox VT30 - Behringer ACX ultracoustic 1000
