Beginner Guitar Songs – Learn Them, Play Them, Master Them

Beginner guitar songs are actually a lot easier to play than most people would think.

Many of us try to learn as many chords and scales as possible and try to work on finger exercises when we first begin to learn the guitar.

But this approach may not always produce the best results for your future as a guitarist.

Although it is certainly a wise move to try to develop your technique as much as you can, as a beginner you would be more prone to get frustrated when you find out that those drills that you've been working too hard on do not actually sound like music to those around you.

A simple yet very effective and fun method to use while learning the guitar is to play songs.

Actually, playing and writing songs comes really down to knowing commonly used chords and a few common chord progressions.

A chord progression is simply a series of chords played in a certain order.

Chord progression is determined by looking at the key chord, which is the first chord played.

For instance, if you start with the key of C (which means the first chord you'll play will be C), you can use chords F and G and voila, you have just played one of the most common chord progressions used in almost any genre of modern music.

And writing your own songs is very easy once you know the progressions. This is especially true if you can write lyrics and sing while playing.

This all may seem a little bit challenging or confusing at first, but once you understand some basic rules like the "I - IV - V" chord progression, you can easily begin to understand how most of the very popular songs are written and actually start to impress people with your own songs.
