Acoustic Guitar Songs

When starting out with the guitar, there is nothing more frustrating than searching around the internet looking for a few acoustic guitar songs to play, but finding out that they are all just that bit too hard. I was there myself. That`s why I have compiled this short list of super easy, pretty easy and not so easy acoustic guitar songs for you to learn.

These are the songs that I frequently teach my private students. They are (mostly) well loved and can be played with just a few chords and a capo for the most part. Where there is a link you will find the video lesson that I have created. If there is no lesson yet, hold tight, they take a little while to create, but they will be there shortly. You can join the mailing if you want to be updated about new video lessons for the `Acoustic Guitar Songs` series (and get a free eBook) by clicking here.
