Songs To Learn

[Nailer]

If anyone has any good, relatively easy songs that are good to learn for beginners on guitar, could you post them here?
Its getting really frustrating getting tabs for songs that a I like and realising I have no hope in hell of coming near playing them.
So any of the first songs guitarists on here learned, or ones they know arent too difficult to pick up, any help is appreciated.

You probably hate Metallica, but it's easy and satisfying. Learn Nothing Else Matters. I think that was the first song I learned (not counting Teen Spirit and In Bloom by Nirvana). System songs are good to learn, too. And RATM.

Well, since you like Zeppelin, i'm pretty sure 'four sticks' is easy. Solo and rythm.

I know fuck all about guitar but sher I'll give it a go. I knwo that Rage's riffs are mostly all the same anyway so learning a few rage songs shudnt be too hard for ya. Then theres the likes of Nirvana too like Alex said. If you stomach it, there are loads of easy punk songs that ya can pick up on easily. But if ya aint into that stuff, I can imagine it bein torture..

Look at the likes of the Offspring, Nirvana, Rage, Green Day (pretty shit but ok to learn), Metallica and even I can manage one or two Audioslave riffs. I know your into them and I'm a guitard so I'm sure you'll be well able pick some of their shit up.

I bought my first guitar off a friend and I couldnt even spell guitar like I was completely guitarded.
So I thought myself One by Metallica but realized that all other metal songs are rock hard to play.

If you look at punk bands most of them have songs or albums that have strayed away from punk but are still easy enough to play.You like the Foo Fighters so I'd say you would probably like 'Gone Away' by The Offspring.Its an amazing song and really easy to play.
If you find playing power chords between the 'A' and 'D' strings hard just place your hand on the bridge like you do when you palm mute and strum the strings instead.

I picked up these skills myself over the past year as I got more and more into punk and actually thought myself how to play guitar properly.

So learn 'Gone Away' by The Offspring and 'We Are All on Drugs' by Weezer if you're smart (especially Gone Away though ;-) )
