"This Land Is Your Land" (originally by Woody Guthrie)

"Feliz Navidad" (originally by and sung by Jose Feliciano)---This is the best of the easiest songs now that the Christmas holidays are here!!!!!!!!

"Study War No More" (one of the best protest/rally songs)

"I'll Fly Away" (a very easy gospel song, by various artists)

Hope all of this helps....

Wild World - Cat Stevens

Well, of John Mayer any song, at least of what i've heard his songs are rather simple to play

When I tried learning the guitar from some of my army buddies in 2004, I practiced avril lavigne's complicated. It was easy only song I can play today besides mary had a little lamb.
