need suggestions for begginer songs on guitar

Scarborough Fair
Greensleeves

 

Youtube has lessons on how to play different songs. I just learned how to play 38 years old, by the tragically hip. Just type in 38 years old lesson.

 

First songs I remember learning on guitar were Red River Valley and Ally Cat.

 

By the way, Hurt is by Nine Inch Nails

How about "I'm Looking Through You" by The Beatles
Lots of early Neil Young is not too tough.

 

1.The wind cries Marry - Jimmy Hendrix
2.Smoke on the water - Deep Purple
3.Detroit rock city - KISS
4.Breaking the law - Judas Priest
5.Angie - Rolling Stones
6.Sweet home alabama - Lynard Skynard

P.S. Sorry if i repeated someone's suggestions.

 

I assume you assume some of us didn't realize the original was by NIN which is why you brought it up... I can't speak for the other(s) but the Johnny Cash version is more conducive to learning and easier to play along with imo which is why I recommended it.

 

Sweater Song.

Simple, easy and fun to play.
