I’ve been playing guitar for a few years. What are some good songs to learn on acoustic that aren’t too hard?
What are some good songs i should learn on acoustic guitar?
I don’t want them to be hard, but not too easy. Also, i don’t want to learn a song that is normally played on an electric guitar. Thanks for the help!
Classical Gas has an easy 7-part tutorial on youtube which I learned my third year of guitar.

It really depends on what type of music you are into. I, myself am a big fan of the Beatles, so in stead of finding their easy chords for rhythmic acoustic guitar, I found fingerstyle guitar versions of their songs.
For example: Here Comes the Sun (This comes with free tab)

Whatever song you want to learn, I recommend you find a how-to video of it on youtube so that you can self-check auditorily.
I find that fingerstyle guitar is god for someone who has been playing for several years, because it’s not too easy, and it comes in different levels of hardness.

Stuff by Iron & Wine is very good… If you do want to get more advanced, listen to Fionn Regan.
More classic acoustic stuff like Jackson Browne or Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young would be difficult as well but quite worth it in the end.

Try Sitting, Waiting Wishing and Flake by Jack Johnson. Pretty easy songs and they are both played on acoustic. Not sure how long youve been playing or what genres your mainly looking yo play but Blackbird by The Beatles is also a good one, mainly finger picking and a little hard if your not used to it but nevertheless a good song.
Also try:
Green Eyes by Coldplay
Sparks by Coldplay
Hard Sun by Eddie Vedder
Drive by Incubus
You and I Both by Jason Mraz
Im Yours by Jason Mraz
Lucky by Jason Mraz
Break The Girl by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Disarm by The Smashing Pumpkins
Landslide by The Smashing Pumpkins
These are a few of the top of my head, check them out.

Fake Plastic Trees by Radiohead is a great song to learn and get better. I’m using it to help keep my rhythm while learning to sing and strum at the same time
