what are some good songs to play for newer guitarests

ok so ill admit it i suck at oplaying the guitar but as monty python would say "im getting better" but im running out of stuff to practice with. i play accoustic guitar and soon im buying an electric one but need music . please tell me the band and song thanks. oh yea and im trying to get into nickthebassist and snakeeyes band they are my friends from school

umm jane says by jane's addiction is like 2 or 3 cords.i love that songs dude.and its acoustic.

blink-182- "All the Small Things" is an easy song to learn... And Nirvana- "Smells Like Teen Spirit"

Some SOAD riffs are fairly easy if you can be bothered to put your guitar in dropped-d tuning (dadgbe)

try a couple of green day songs, some songs are only liek 3 to 5 chords

try "damnit" by blink 182, thats pretty good to learn

and the solo in nirvana "smells liek teens spirit"

Yeah Smells Like Teen Spirit is one of the easiest songs I know, along with the core riff from Californication by RHCP.

Also check out some of the tabs for Rage Against The Machine's earlier stuff, they have one or two very easy songs.

"Lucky man" by the Verve is a piece of pish.

It would be easier if you said what style of music or which groups you like.

Try anything from the late punk movement. Three chords and you're done.

Rage Against the Machine - Sleep Now In the Fire
Led Zeppelin - Over the Hills and Far Away
Black Sabbath - Iron Man, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Nirvana - Heart Shaped Box, Smells Like... and Lithium
Guns N Roses - Sweet Child O' Mine
Deep Purple - Smoke On the Water

Jimi Hendrix- Purple Haze

Hey Joe is also pretty easy

Song 2 by Blur
Bohemian Like You by the Dandy Warhols
Woo Hoo by the Rock-a-Teens
Twist n Shout by the Beatles
All Day And All Of The Night by the Kinks
You Really Got Me by the Kinks
Enter Sandman by Metallica

Nobody alive besides Eddie Van Halen and perhaps under 5 other guitarists can ever master "Eruption". Pointless for you to even think of trying.

"Heart Shaped Box" is a good first one.

I can play it and so can 2 other people I know. Seriously, it's all about practice.

The Cranberries - Zombie
That's gotta be one of the easiest songs, 3 chords, it's easy for me and I suck at playing guitar.
3 Doors Down - Kryptonite
A bit more difficult than zombie but if I can do it them I'm sure anyone with minimal guitar talent can manage.
A bunch on Nirvana and Green Day are easy enough for beginners.

"I can play it and so can 2 other people I know. Seriously, it's all about practice."

We clearly aren't talking about the same version. Or if we are I seriously find it incredibly hard to believe that you can play it anywhere near as fast or note precise. Are your two friends name Joe and Steve by any chance?

-AC

It was achieved by breaking it down into sections and practising for 5 hours a day for almost a year.

That being said, I still find it hard to believe. I'd have to hear and see it to believe it.

Just me though.

Sabbath - Into The Void, Iron Man, and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath

the solo from One by Metallica, it sounds easy so it must be 😉
