Topic: Beginner Songs

I've been playing the acoustic guitar for about a month now and I was wondering if anyone could give me between 5 and 10 basic songs with no more than 5 chords that would help me to learn quicker

Re: Beginner Songs

oasis"LIVE FOREVER" and "DONT LOOK BACK IN ANGER" are both quite easy.

Also, Pulp:"mis-shapes"

bob dylan:"blowing in the wind" and "how does it feel"


Most of these are in chordie

I'll be adding more easy songs to my public songbook <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_razz.gif" border=0 alt="Razz">   <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_lol.gif" border=0 alt="Laughing">
