A song is easy when it uses few different chords (usually three or four open chords like Am, C, D, E and G), requires no barre chords and has a steady, repeating pattern. That's exactly why it's the best practice material: you train your chord changes in a real musical context, and you hear results immediately — the fastest way to stay motivated.
Here's how to approach it: choose a song you know well, play along with just the chord changes at half speed first, then increase the tempo once the transitions run smoothly. Once you can play two or three of these songs from start to finish, you're ready for the structured beginner path in guitar lessons.
Looking for an even simpler start? Children's songs often use just two or three chords and everyone knows the melody. And if you want to master the finger positions first, start in the chord library with diagrams and practice tips for each chord.
