try kryptonite by 3 doors down. everyone loves it and it's pretty easy.

slightly harder is the intro riff to sweet child o mine. it took me many months of playing before i got it sounding OK but it's a pretty good exercise for getting all your fingers moving, string skipping and alternate picking.

stairway to heaven for fingerpicking

I'd come up wiht more but i cant really remember, my massive stack of tabs is upstairs. those are some good starters though, i think.

The first sond i learned on Electric guitar was

Gary Moore - Over the hills and far away, its not that hard and the solo section is fun to play, becides this i wote for sweet child off mine.

Kryptonite by thrre doórs down is also a goo´d song to play but its not fun to play that With pick its more of a finger song :P and imo electric guitar:pick but thats up to you, :)

Easiest by a mile is The Animals - House Of The Rising Sun.


The entire song is built around these chords:

Am | C | D | F | Am | C | E | Em | G

Thats not hard :)
