I enjoy playing tunes on the guitar. People around me probably don’t appreciate the out of time and out of tune nature of my playing as much as I do, but that is their loss.
There are a few chords on the guitar that are easy to play, and these include A, Am, D, G, C, E, Em. There are other common chords which are harder play, especially bar chords including F and Bm.
So the trick when looking for songs is to find songs which use the simple chords, and hold them for at least a few beats each. Some tunes change chords so quickly that it is hard to keep up!
Here is a jumbled list of some tunes that I sometimes play, and if I can play them they must be simple.
