A question for guitar players.?

Question

Does anybody know a good guitar composition, which I can play to my girlfriend? I want to go to her house and sit down under her windows. But I need a good and not so hard one.

Answer 1

AND I LOVE HER - The Beatles

Very easy chords, easy structure, easy to memorize, beautiful melody, great sentiment, peerless Lennon/McCartney pedigree... A perfect "beginner" love song!

Em______Bm
I give her all my love
Em______Bm
That's all I do
Em______Bm
And if you saw my love
G___________A
You'd love her too
D
I love her

Em_________Bm
She gives me everything
Em______Bm
And tenderly
Em_______Bm
The kiss my lover brings
G__________A
She brings to me
D
And I love her

Bm______D___Bm________A
A love like ours, could never die
Bm______A________A+D
As long as I have you near me

Em_________Bm
Bright are the stars that shine
Em_______Bm
Dark is the sky
Em______Bm
I know this love of mine
G_______A
Will never die
D
And I love her

Answer 2

Oddly enough, Metallica's "And Nothing Else Matters" sounds great on an acoustic guitar. This version is also pretty simple. When I pasted it here, the chord changes all bunched up on at the beginning. Listen to the song and you'll hear when you should change chords.

Nothing Else Matters, performed by Metallica

key: Em


Em D C
So close no matter how far
Em D C
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Em D C
Forever trusting who we are
G B Em
And nothing else matters

Em D C
Never opened myself this way
Em D C
Life is ours, we live it our way
Em D C
All these words I don't just say
G B7 Em
And nothing else matters

Em D C
Trust I seek and find in you
Em D C
Every day for us something new
Em D C
Open mind for a different view
G B7 Em
And nothing else matters

{Chorus}
C A D C
Never cared for what they do
A D C
Never cared for what they know
A D Em
But I know

{repeat 1st verse}
{Chorus}
{repeat 2nd and 3rd verse}

C A D C
Never cared for what they say
A D C
Never cared for what they play
A D C
Never cared for what they do
A D C
Never cared for what they know
A D Em
But I know

{repeat 1st verse}


Em D C G B B7 A

Answer 3

Here are a couple of songs that I think would be good:

Eric Clapton: Tears in Heaven
--Not difficult to learn the basic parts. Just mix and match to whatever sounds good. Shouldn't take you a week to learn.

3 Doors Down: Here without you.
--Not tough, just need a capo and a little practice

Foo Fighters; Big Me
--Simple Song. Just play the rhythym parts and you'll be fine. Won't take you a day to learn.

Answer 4

All the choices in the post are good choices.. For me, I've played jazz and chord melody type solo's for yrs.. I'd play some brazilian tunes.. Romantic music.. Jobim wrote some very nice tunes..

Answer 5

Accoustic, it Must be..

Myself I'd attempt something I can -for sure- "carry-off", alone..
so I'd go 'way back in history, -and play "Yellow Bird".

Ps: I would consider old Hank B. Marvin "Shadows" (band) tunes.. like "Theme From "Shane"; "Wonderfull Night"; "Stars Fell On Stockton", and "Come September" -IF, (on the "SEPTEMBER" one, I could arrange a 'Bruce Welch' -with his Martin -for Rhythum!)

Play something OLD (-as THAT will be more simple -like: "WIndy & Warm" -by Chet Atkins.. who had a fling with Mike Knoeffler, of Dire -Straights fame).. AND your sweetheart wouldn't of heard "HOW it.. SHOULD be , (100%-correctly), played.. -See?

-Just before he died, Chet Atkins did -with Knoeffler, his 'licks n' tricks': they did a BEAUTY: "Poor-Boy Blues" -together.. (It was very difficult to tell who WAS THE Master!)..

Answer 6

Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) by Green Day was very simple and was the first one I learned.

Answer 7

Good Riddance (time of your life) - Green Day

Answer 8

Answer 9

stairway to heaven by ledzeppelin

Answer 10
