Looking for some easy to learn songs, the more, the better - Lemmy.World

Hey folks! Can you please give me some songs that would take an intermediate player to learn in one or two days? And I mean the whole guitar part. A good example would be Ramones’ Blitzkrieg Bop, a counter example would be Metallica’s Fade to Black, where the whole song is quite easy, but the solo can take some time.

Without a genre or tempo or style that’s a pretty wide selection to choose from. Even taking an arbitrary limit like songs with ‘big’ in the title gets you a bunch of options: Big rock candy mountain, big iron, the big country, big river, big bang (bass), big shot, big train, big gun. Big love is a little more advanced, but big me is pretty simple.

I would mostly just be careful about classical/jazz/bluegrass/metal picks because of the long arpeggios or complex chord shapes. Pop, Rock, r&b, blues, folk are all usually safer picks for a quicker study.
