Oksh, just been inspired to play guitar, what’s the easiest song to start off with. I’d like tabs, please. :)

By the way, I have a Fender DG5 acoustic guitar, if that makes any difference.

It’s quite easy to forget how hard barre chords can be to someone who is just starting. They are easy, once you’ve got enough strength in your fingers. You just need to learn the one basic shape and then move it up and down the neck, but without the strength, that can be pretty hard to do.. You’ll just need to practise. Good luck.

Well, there’s a note missing off the end, (an open string) and I think that that 4 at the end should be a three, but I’m not sure about that.

Try some songs that are just chords, most guitar books are full of them. Maybe something by the beatles.

I can play Teethgrinder :) although I can’t play the parts with muted strings. I just can’t stick at guitar long enough, because it’ll give my mum the impression that I no longer want to be a drummer, although I want to play guitar and drums (and bass!).

I also think tabs and chords are complicated.. :(
