i started out many years ago with nirvana songs... all simple chords, not much solos..
just gotta catch the timing thats all. pretty simple in my opinion.
or u can try some bon jovi too, those are pretty alright for starters.

Just play those mainstream songs off the radio. All of them pretty easy to learn.

 

[Soul Asylum]

green day - when i come around
green day - 21 guns
blink 182 - all the small things

try out those punk-rock bands. those should be really easy.

All of the songs are of alternative rock genre.

Why hasn't anyone stated Smoke on the Water, yet?

 

[Soul Asylum]

Why hasn't anyone stated Smoke on the Water, yet?

because of the solo maybe?

I could swear there's a whole lot of A minors in there too!
In most places it's an alternating sequence, if I'm not mistaken.

i.e.
G-D-Am
G-D-C

On band pitch, though, i think it goes on a G flat key.

Knockin on heavens door just freaking learn by ear. No tabs required. V simple.

Riff for smoke on the water

Messages - Velvet Revolver

The Last Fight - Velvet Revolver.

Try Kryptonite, by Three Doors Down.

Three chords, Bm-A-G,

just alternate such that verse is soft / pluck chords one string at a time,

chorus go to power chords and chugga chugga

HIM - The Funeral of Hearts (simple rythms and simple solo)
Nickelback - Photograph (nice exercise for barre chords)
Greenday - Boulevard of Broken Dream (Simple rythms)
