Easy Beautiful Song to Learn to Sing and Play Guitar

best easy songs to play and sing on guitar

Playing guitar is great, but nothing compares to playing and singing on the guitar at the same time. The trouble is that playing and singing simultaneously can be hard to learn.

Never fear! I'm coming at you with 15 songs that are easy to play and sing on the guitar. These are great songs for both the acoustic and electric guitar, and we'll cover a bunch of artists and genres.

I've also included chords, tabs, and video lessons for each singing to make singing and playing as easy as possible.

One final note before we get started: don't forget to tune your guitar! These songs won't sound right if your guitar is out of tune… If you need a great tuner, here's my favorite clip-on guitar tuner (on Amazon).

Also: you will need a capo to play some of these songs. If you don't have a capo (or want to upgrade to a better one) here's my favorite capo (on Amazon).

Now strap in and grab your guitar to get started on these 15 Easy Songs to Play and Sing on Guitar:
