Jim Croce does basically exclusively fingerstyle guitar, though its difficult to find tablature though..

theyre sing along type songs, some of them are very popular though shud check it out. You would probably recognize: Operator, New Yorks Not my Home, Photographs and memories, Time in a bottle

im sure uve heard at least one of those before



Elliott Smith also does some "finger style stuff", its sort of a combo between fingerstyle and chord strumming, but he always plays with just his fingers, so u might find it interesting to check out also

Anything by City and Colour.
Babe I'm Gonna Leave You - Led Zeppelin.

Free Fallin' (cover) - John Mayer.

Try to do what John Mayer did on his Free Fallin' cover with other Electric songs.
Make them acoustic and finger pick them. It's what I've been into recently.

It's fun, helps you learn new songs, and helps you work on understanding music and fingerpicking in general.
