My 2 go to songs are Jake Shimabukuro's version of "Guitar Gently Weeps" and "Let's Dance".

I honestly thought I would see the Guitar Gently Weeps song on this list a lot for some reason haha.

Fun Thread! Been trying to learn a few songs a week the last 6 weeks, and so I've been exposed to a lot of songs in that time. I guess the ones I seem to go to regularly this week are:

ELP - Lucky Man strummed/finger picked and sung.
Townes Van Zandt - If I needed You finger picked/strummed and sung.

Lately my go to song is Aimless Love or In a Town This Size by John Prine. Or a bluegrass tune like Don't This Road Look Rough and Rocky or Columbus Stockade Blues.

Now I have a new song to work on. Aimless Love is a good one and it forces me to practice that E-chord. Thanks

Bike mech, the good thing is that once you have this memorized (and it's a simple song structure), you can sing many other songs to it (especially other John Prine songs).

Right now I can't seem to stop playing If I Can't Change Your Mind by Sugar. It's really nice and strummy. Only problem is my fingernail is in tatters.

Just figured out how to play Harvest Moon by Neil Young--pick & strum. I must've played it 200 times in the last 7 days. That and My Sweet Lady, by John Denver--picking.

Do you have a link that shows how you play Harvest Moon?
