As the guitar is one of the instruments with the nicest sound, there is no wonder why so many people under and over the age of 18 are eager to learn how to play it. Since it has only 6 strings, some would say that it’s easy to learn how to play it, but as soon as they try to produce the first tone, they realize how wrong they were at the beginning. That’s why all the beginners learn some of the easiest songs to play on the guitar before they take their lessons to the next level to impress someone.
As the beginner, you need to focus on few things before you take your instrument out in the crowd. Believe it or not, the first thing you need to learn is how to hold the guitar properly. The second thing is to learn chords. I don’t know about you, but I am the kind of person that learns best through the practice, so when I tried to learn how to play the guitar, I consulted my best friends Google and Youtube for basics and the easiest songs, to begin with. The beginning of Smoke on the Water was most annoying but must learn a thing to play, but after hitting it for the first few times, I was ready to move ahead.
After I finished Lady in Black by Uriah Heep I started to notice the improvement in both my holding and the softness in my fingers. Besides, when I finished it, I have already learned two chords and that was enough for the beginning. I was eager to learn everything in the first week, which is why I failed so many times. And, really, what was I thinking with using only D and G, but that is the question for the past me that also doesn’t have the answer to it. If you don’t want to finish your career before it even started like I did, I recommend you to start with some of the 10 easiest four chord songs for beginners and then transfer to 10 easiest acoustic rock songs to play on the guitar for beginners and after you finish all of them, only the sky will be the limit for you.
