Hi, I'm kind of new to playing the guitar and I'm looking for some songs to play that aren't to difficult. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Re: Easy Songs!

Hey.
You can play all songs with 3 acords. You have to lern somthing about the way the acords works together: (major/minor)  A/F#m  - D/Bm -G/Em - C/Am - F/Dm - Bb/Gm - Eb/Cm - Ab/Fm - Db/DBm - F#/Ebm - B/G#M - E/C#m. After E the whole starts again.
Yoy could play the major insted of the minor.
If you only have to play A,D,G and you have a song with F, Bb, Eb, Gm, Cm You coud play A insted af F, D insted of Bb and Gm, G insted of Eb and Cm.

OK that just loosened something in my brain. You can see the relationship between these chords when you see how they are made up. I had a wee look at a chord building grid to check it out. You can find one here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_building_grid
After a bid of a nose bleed I started to see what daddy from denmark means. Amazing.

Is anything really made up of zeros and ones??

Re: Easy Songs!

Wild thing and hey joe are pretty easy songs if you know the basic chords.

Music is best expressed when used to play with guitar.
Im a 13 year old guitarist who needs a young band to play in.
Acoustic eletric guitar, electric guitar, drums, amp, speakers, cords, and dist. pedal is what i have.

Horse with no name - Check out this link http://youtube.com/watch?v=BKWYaUNPy5Q - The person shows you how to play the song with an EM and Dadd6add9 (Don't worry the Dadd6add9 is very simple).
