Why don't you try Seven Nation Army (really, anything by the White Stripes is easy, but Seven Nation Army is the easiest). Learning that song will teach you power chords and make you more comfortable moving your finger along one string. The song I learned after that was the James Bond theme (which can be a bit daunting at first, but keep at it).

Just remember practice is the key, because you will get VERY VERY frustrated trying to learn songs at first. You'll want to quit playing, but keep at it and eventually you'll have a blast :)

Yea the power chords are fairly hard, no doubt -- but you'll get used to it. If you learn how to do power chords then you can move onto open chords and then bar chords. Keep at it dude. GL
