I’ll demonstrate 7 impressive sounding campfire guitar songs that are really quite easy to play! Some are easier than others, but all are credible options for beginners and intermediate level guitar players to aspire to.
And guess what, the 7th song will absolutely blow your mind just HOW EASY it is to play, yet it sounds advanced ie: it sounds IMPRESSIVE!
You only need 1 finger to play the notes
You only need two fingers to do the picking meaning just about anyone could play this song with a bit of practice 😉

1:09 Song #1; a Nirvana classic.
I’m just playing the intro base riff to get you warmed up. Like, super-easy. You will see how easy this song is to play on the acoustic guitar. Play along in real time if you want to!
1:37 Song #2; a great song by John Cougar
or was it John Cougar Mellencamp. Three simple chords with some quick strumming, but a very identifiable guitar riff.
2:16 Song #3; a classic from the Rolling Stones.
Big heavy bass sound with a real rock’n’roll feel. Iconic Rolling Stones!!
3:21 Song #4; a huge hit for Matchbox 20
with a surprisingly simple three chord pattern but sound so much more complex. Definitely worth adding this to your song portfolio!
4:15 Song #5; A collaboration between Santana and Evermore
this song is perfect for the acoustic guitar. I also take some time to break this one down a bit so you can have a go at playing it yourself.
5:46 Song #6; an instantly identifiable song from The Who
with a simple chord progression but requiring some strumming skills. A must listen song.
6:28 BONUS Song #7;
I call this one Campfire Guitar Hero Arpeggio. If you are to learn one “guitar party trick” song then this is it. It won’t be what you expect, but once you hear it you will fall in love with it.
