Easy Songs for the Very Beginner – 100 easy guitar songs

Easy Songs for the Very Beginner is designed for brand-new guitarists who want to move quickly from their first chords to playing real songs. The collection features 100 popular favourites in easy-to-follow guitar charts with chords, lyrics and basic tablature, making a huge repertoire accessible from the early stages of learning.

Rather than spending months working only on technical exercises before playing familiar music, this book puts recognisable songs at the centre of the learning experience. It makes an excellent companion to guitar lessons as well as a motivating resource for self-taught beginners.

100 songs from timeless classics to current hits

The repertoire crosses generations of pop and rock, with songs including Yesterday, Free Fallin', Losing My Religion, Smells Like Teen Spirit and Under the Bridge alongside newer favourites such as Birds of a Feather, Die with a Smile, Ordinary and Wildflower.

Other selections include Hey There Delilah, Tennessee Whiskey, Wagon Wheel, Believer, All About That Bass and Margaritaville. The wide variety allows players to choose music that matches their tastes while gaining experience with different chords, rhythms and song structures.

Chords, lyrics and basic guitar TAB

The songs are presented in clear charts combining chord symbols and lyrics with basic tablature for important guitar parts. The format is designed to make the music as approachable as possible, allowing beginners to start playing without first having to master traditional music notation.

This makes the collection particularly useful for chord playing and song accompaniment, helping new guitarists build a substantial repertoire while becoming increasingly comfortable with the instrument.

A motivating way to start playing guitar

Being able to play a recognisable song early in the learning process can provide powerful motivation to keep practising. With 100 songs to explore, players have plenty of material for gradually improving chord changes, rhythm, fingering and the ability to follow complete songs from beginning to end.

Easy Songs for the Very Beginner is an ideal choice for new guitarists who want a large collection of approachable songs and would rather develop their skills through real music than rely solely on traditional beginner exercises.
