Guitar SongsSo you want to learn some guitar songs? Great, let’s get started!

Learning guitar songs is one of the most engaging and fun ways to progress on your guitar, and because of that I’m always happy to add another lesson to this list. One of the most fun things to do when you’re learning songs on the guitar is to have a friend learn the songs with you, perhaps even on another instrument. Then you can play through the song together and jam it out.

When you’re learning guitar songs, don’t stress too much about playing them exactly as they were performed. It’s fun to work on adding your own flavor or twist to the song, and how can you ever do that if you’re playing it perfectly as it was performed, strum for strum and lick for lick? The trick is to identify the signature parts of the song, and remain true to those while at the same time taking a bit of freedom with the rest.

Keep in mind that if you’re not very familiar with your guitar chords and guitar scales, then you might need a bit of work on those first before going at some of these songs.
