It helps to practice playing the guitar with easy guitar songs. You start learning how to play by knowing the basics. When you are already familiar with the technical aspects and already know the different notes and chords, sticking to the traditional lessons may get boring. A healthy way to learn faster and to keep your interest is to practice with songs that are not complicated for beginners to play.

Here are some songs that you can use for a more fun and productive way of learning to play the guitar.

America's "Horse With No Name" is not just popular; it is also very simple to play. You would only use two chords all throughout to play this classic. These are the "E minor" and "D" chords.

Another is "About A Girl" popularized by the legendary rock band, Nirvana. You can play the verse just with a progression of the open position chords "A" and "G". It will get a little complicated as you get to the chorus. But, you will easily get used to the additional chords as you practice.

Lastly, there is the crowd favorite "Margaritaville" by Jimmy Buffet. You will get the tunes right by simply repeating the D-A-G chords throughout the song. This is fun and is also perfect for learning. Aside from practicing with the basic chords, it would also introduce you to more advanced lessons like the walking base line.

Here are a few other choices you could practice with:

• Before You Accuse Me by The Blues
• If Not for You by Bob Dylan
• For What It's Worth by Buffalo Springfield
• Help! by The Beatles
• Hurt by Johnny Cash
• Happy by The Rolling Stones
• Fire by Bruce Springsteen
• Three Marlenas by The Wallflowers
• House of the Rising Sun by The Animals

If you want, you can get to the spirit of Christmas while learning how to play the guitar with the easy to play classic, "Silent Night".

These easy guitar songs are perfect for beginners because they make any learning experience easy and a lot more fun.
