This will take a little research on your part. When I was in a band, we got a list of ALL the top songs for the past few decades. We chose our set lists from that.
Why not? They were the most popular, people wanted to hear them. We got them, believe it or not, from a radio station.
There was way too many good ones to choose from, and of course, there were some that technically we could not do.
Look for the STANDARDS. The usual early R&R songs, and a few of the most well known modern ones.

Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple. I knew a kid in the sixth grade and that's all he could play. If he could remember it, then it shouldn't be too much trouble for you! :) Plus, it's a classic!

To me the ultimate guitar player should know "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple. It's a major classic!
