...well post the chords for some easy songs on guitar. I know UKjason is trying to learn and maybe more people out there are as well so we should post chord progressions/lyrics of some easy songs for them to learn plus one can never have to many easy songs for when they are drunk and asked to play something. here i'll start. as many of you know my primary music is Bluegrass so here is the song "CauseI got High" (the hip hop song) by Affroman transposed into and easy bluegrass tune.

G---------------------------------------C
I was gonna clean my room but i got high
--------------D------------------------------------G---
i was gonna get up and find the broom but i got high
--------------------------------------C
my rooms still a wreck and i know why (why man?)
--------------G-----------------D-----------------G
cause i got high, cause i got high, cause i got high

it stays the exact same through all the verses. Play it upbeat tempo.

Since this is less of a thread-hijack compared to the other guitar thread, here goes: Kind of tricky, but not necessarily hard... just requires some finger accuracy, but definitely a fun song to learn: I'm Alright, written by Neil Zaza.

when I learned to play 12 years ago, it was nothing but Nirvana. I think "Come as you are" was the first song I learned to play...I've gotten a little better since then

I think Ween does another version as well, although not bluegrass at all its kind of funny to listen to.
