First song I learned to play was "nothing else matters" by Metallica

I would suggest that you learn full songs rather than just intros. Sure it takes a bit of memory but it will make you more than just some hack with a guitar.

Try to learn songs that focus on different techniques.

Fingerpicking- "dust in the wind" by Kansas
Powerchords- Anything nirvana
Chord changes- "wonderwall" by Oasis

None of those are my favorite jams, but they are the simplest form of each skill that I can think of.

Pick something new rock, it is almost all garbage powerchords and simple. Very little talent in the music industry compared to earlier years.

powertabs are a good thing to have. Also do scales, they help with dexterity and learning the actual notes. The guitar was made to play more than tablature.

awesome, the world does need more musicians. dont try to emulate anyone else. if you really want to enjoy your music, make it your own. take some lessons but dont let them influence you too much. just learn the basics then teach yourself the rest. trust me it will be worth it

that's cool man, i think the world has plenty of musicians now though. there's like 50 new bands everyday, not a problem though, I love listening to new and different music. anybody listen to the mars volta(listenin to em right now) but they're pretty crazy, nothin repeats itself in the song and the concerts are even better cuz they play non stop. i only play my guitar every now and then, but it's fun, i wanna get a bass to mess around w/ too. BumbleZC, that's a nice collection.

marsvolta.. good ---- i love how they have long ass songs and the most random ---- yet it all somehow fits in and sounds awesome..

first song i ever learned to play is south of heaven by slayer.. i learned it through and through and learned how to read tab 100% all in about 3 days..

i suggest you get to learning how to read tabs pretty damn quickly.. then its all easy ---- from then on.. first thing u gotta do is learn to play something u like.. or else ull get discouraged.. learn the cords and what not later on. so look for little frills you can play so that everytime u get bored u can pick up the quitar and play em.. so u dont get discouraged..

lots of bass lines make great sounding frills.. like the scism by tool bassline.. and laterlaus by tool.. the patient also by tool..
mother russia by iron maiden.. (the part after the intro)

daytripper by the beatles..

smoke on the water by deep purple..

those are all kick ass songs that will get u motivated.. and u dont have to learn cord for em :1

but when u do learn all the chords thats when it really opens up for ya :P

then u can play good riddance by greenday like someone on here mentioned..

just learn the cords.. and start switching between two cords over and over again till u get used to it.. then throw in another cord.. switch between the three.. add a frill in between keep switching.. guitar is ------- awesome.. i play for myself.. and learned everything by myself.. i only needed overpriced lessons to learn how to hold the damn thing and get me started on tab :1 after tab comes cords.. and its all smooth sailing from there..
