Easy Rock Guitar Songs

So you want to learn how to play rock guitar? Who doesn’t? It’s a very popular style of music and there are literally hundreds of songs you can learn how to play. Below are several relatively easy rock guitar songs that you can start playing right now. Now when I say easy, I do not mean you can pick up the guitar and instantly be playing these songs perfectly. As with anything new, playing rock guitar songs is going to be a bit challenging in the beginning, even the ones that are considered extremely easy by many. If you apply yourself and practice these songs every day, you will be playing them much faster.

Now keep in mind that some of these songs have complicated intro’s and solos, so do not expect to be able to play the entire song right now. Try focusing on playing only the rythm sections of these songs, then when you become more experienced, you can try incorporating the more complicated sections of these rock songs.

I will be adding to this list of easy rock guitar songs over time, so be sure to bookmark this list and return often to check for updates. If there is a particular rock song that you would like to learn that is not listed here, be sure to leave a message in the comments box below and I will do my best to add it to the list..

Enjoy and happy rock guitar playing!

Learn Rock Guitar -- “About a Girl” by Nirvana

Learn how to play the song “About a Girl” by Nirvana, with this free guitar lesson. “About a Girl” is from Nirvana’s debut album, “Bleach“ released in 1989. You can read some more very interesting history behind this song over at Wikipedia.

If you are a big fan of Rock Guitar and have not been playing that long and really want to jam out, than this song is for you! It is fairly easy to play. The main verses use very simple guitar chords: E Minor and G Major. When the song changes, it gets a bit more difficult and uses the C# and F# Chords. If you aren’t experienced with playing barre chords yet, there are a couple of easier ways to play the C# and F# Chords. David Taub of Next Level Guitar explains how in the video below.
