Best Songs for Beginners to Learn on Guitar (Fingerstyle)

The Top Ten

1 Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) - Green Day

If I had to play it then I'd play with a pick rather than fingers (fingerpicking). Cause Billie used some rough picking in the chorus part.

It is a great song, so great to learn and is very easy

2 Here Comes the Sun - The Beatles

3 Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers

4 Babe I'm Gonna Leave You - Led Zeppelin

5 Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd

6 Angie - The Rolling Stones

7 Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin

The intro isn't too bad

8 Tears in Heaven - Eric Clapton

9 Nothing Else Matters - Metallica

James Hetfield was on the phone and accidentally played the opening riffs. Quite easy. And good for fingerstyle.

10 Blackbird - The Beatles

Quite simple, but still very fun to play. Great song for learning how to use all the fingers while moving the fingers on the right hand rather quickly.
