Beginner Songs
I've been practicing the basic chords of a guitar and can transition fairly well now after quite a bit of practice. I've been trying to find easy songs to play but i haven't found any. Can you give me some input on what to try to learn first? What was your first song? Thanks.

It all depends what songs you like. Of the top of my head here are some easy songs:
Neil Young: Down By The River After The Gold Rush Don't Let It Bring You Down Sugar Mountain Old Man Marshal Tucker Band: Can't You See Fire On the Mountain Lynyrd Skynyrd: Sweet Home Alabama Arlo Guthrie: Comin' Into Los Angeleez City of New Orleans America: Sandman Horse w/ No Name Lonely People Eagles: Hotel California Eric Clapton: Bell Bottom Blues Running on Faith Bad Love Grateful Dead: Friend of the Devil Franklins Tower I know You Rider Me & My Uncle Jackaroe Cassidy too many to list but 90% of their stuff is manageable. Pink Floyd: Comfortably Numb Wish You Were Here Mother Simon & Garfunkel: Mrs. Robinson The Boxer (this can get a little hard) Steve Miller Band: Take the Money and Run The list goes on obviously....for the most part, if you are comfortably changing chords and can manage pretty good rhythm, most rock/classic rock/folk tunes are pretty easy.

What's up porscheguy,
Pink Floyd - Breathe was the very 1st song I learned. I use www.olga.net for most of my tabs, or if I can't find a song there (or don't like the version they have up) I go to yahoo.com, and in search type "<artist name> <song name> tabs" and I get all the results I need. -gc |
