I'm looking for some good songs to play on an acoustic guitar...like some hippyish (not sure if that's a word..lol) songs....and also I was looking for some good protest songs to play... and I was also looking for just protest songs in general, just to listen to....Can any one help??
go to google.com and type in guitar tab. first song i learned to play on my acoustic was hotel california, then i did some old skool greend day, its easy as hell cuz they only use like 3 or 4 chords. anything beatles or bob...................
go for country joe and the fish. they have many protest songs, the most famous of which is the "i-feel-like-im-fixin-to-die-rag". the website www.countryjoe.com has a tab of it. other protest songs: for what its worth-buffalo springfield signs-five man electric band eve of destruction-barry mcguire volunteers-jefferson airplane its good news week-hedgehoppers anonymous machine gun-jimi hendrix (obviously not acoustic) hope that helps
just go to tabrobot.com and search away u could do Alice's Restaurant... and if u learn all the lyrics people will be very impressed!
the best song ever to play is knocking on heavens door. It is super easy and you can jazz it up if you feel like it. It is so fun to play because it is easy and fun to sing along to. It is also fun to play in groups of large people. here it is... GG DD AmAmAmAm GG DD CCCC have fun!
I really liked the acoustic version of under the bridge, by RHCP. Of course, this was with hillel, and not JF. I saw a clip of anthony and hillel singing it floating down a river in italy. It was really beautiful
If you want some some hippy type acoustic songs to play then try the album/Cd 'CJ Fish' by Country Joe & The Fish. It has some easy to learn great acoustic tunes, also 'Working Mans Dead by GratefulDead.
