hey hey dough and Justin back with you
now we're going to talk about songs and
there are loads of songs that you can
play with just a teeny like loads and
loads of fun songs if you're gonna play
along with the original recording
sometimes you might need to use a capo
and we've not really got into doing that
yet that's going to be something we
discuss in the next lesson so for now
you'll probably want to try and find
some songs that don't use a capo or you
want to be using my beginner song course
app and the play along from that but
just to give you an idea of some of the
songs that you might want to check out
if you're playing this you could have
just with a D and E you've got all of
the ones that just had a and D in them
like born in the USA and dance the night
away and feeling alright and all of that
sort of stuff but you've got things like
three little birds that's usually my
recommended three chord song because
it's just such a great tune I've walked
a line The Gambler love me do by the
Beatles that's a little bit of a harder
one for what it's worth by Buffalo
Springfield that's a really nice one
common people buy pop five years time of
Noah and the Whale leaving on a jet
plane John Denver Wild Thing love comes
to town there are so many songs lay down
Sally stir it up twist and shout I mean
there's loads and loads of great songs
that you can play with just a D and E so
your task now is to find the songs that
you really love playing and then work on
those in your practice session now I'm
going to give you recommended songs like
three little birds I think it's just as
such a great song for beginners that's
relatively simple there's not too many
chord changes in it but enough to kind
of keep you on your toes so if you're
looking for one to do that's going to be
the one that's recommended that I use on
my little practice session videos as
well but the one of the key things I
think for sticking with guitar is
playing music that you really like so
that can be a really important part of
it is trying to find the songs that you
find inspiring to play now if there are
none there let me know in the comments
and say hey man you're not catering to
my musical taste at all right now I
can't be able to do every obscure little
song that ever was right that's just not
possible but I'm trying to do a breadth
of stuff that most people will find at
least one song that maybe if it might be
as well that you may be not familiar
with some of the songs they'll be a
Spotify playlist linked in the lesson
text that you can click on they'll take
you to a playlist of all of
begin a song so maybe you just haven't
heard for what it's worth by Buffalo
Springfield you know especially if
you're sixteen you probably haven't come
across that song before so maybe you
check it out you go hey man they were
doing some cool music back there this is
one I want to check out so have a listen
to some of those songs as well because
you might discover some new music that
you haven't heard before and that's
always a good thing as well so check
that out there will be a list of the
songs on the website page so just down
below this video you're gonna find a
whole heap there'll be some that are
available on the beginning of song
course out there we some that I've got
player Long's on the website that we
some that are in my beginner song books
as well so there's spread out over a
whole bunch of different media so you
want to find the one that's working for
you you know I know it's my app and it's
for sale thing but if the app is really
killer for this sort of stuff at this
place where you're right now and you're
beginner journey being able to play
along with drums and bass and have the
melody being played so you can just
really concentrate on the chord changes
and getting your strumming right but it
still sounds really musical and sounds
like the song I think it's the best
thing ever for beginner guitar players I
really do and I think it's an incredible
tool that you can use that will
accelerate your beginner journey okay
and I think that's an important thing
but if that's not something that's
available for you then you want to check
out the player long videos that I've got
again they'll be linked in the
description below and if you're not
doing that trying to play along with
some original recordings can be really
helpful as well that's oftentimes it's
the best approach to be honest to play
along with the original recording but
just with a D&E the the palette choice
that you've got there is a little bit
more limited and you might need a capo
so I really hope you find at least a few
songs that you really dig that you're
going to practice on this week if you've
got any problems with the songs or any
of the other lessons do leave a comment
on the website okay on the specific
lesson that you having a problem with is
the most helpful for me I get in there
regularly and try and answer those
questions you'll also find the community
might help you out as well so don't be
afraid to ask questions it'll only help
me make the course even better for you
and everyone else that uses the course
after you so I really hope you're
enjoying it all so far let's get into
some practice
