Time to Face The Music

Hey everyone...I believe that there's no sweeter sound than the sound of an acoustic guitar being played...(by someone that knows how).

A couple of years back I started taking guitar lessons. At the same time I discovered that a few of my 12-13 year old students were having lessons by my guitar teacher as well....

Often while I attempted to teach them art, we'd talk about how our guitar lessons were progressing...this was great, for about a few weeks...then my students started to advance in their guitar playing way faster than me... (it was at about this time that I started asking for 'silent painting' in class)...

Anyway, they seemed to get the hang of things easily, while I just struggled.

One of my resolutions for 2006 is to learn how to play, and not give up until I can impress people with at least one tune... (my friends are easily impressed, so I won't have to be that good!)

I love the Beatles and wonder if anyone can suggest any 'easy' tune to start with...

Cheers, and the best of luck with your learning...

It is probably safer to just link to material that may be questionable. That way our forum stays safe and Kirk can take a look and give his opinion.

There are 21 acoustic beatles tunes here. You need powertab(free) to play them though.

Hi Mystique

I found when I first started out that "From Me To You" by The Beatles was a fairly easy one to do and good fun as well. You might try that and play along to the actual song if you've got it. Good luck!
