Hey guitar heroes,

What is the best, easiest, most satisfying MMJ song to learn on guitar for a beginner?  I mostly just dork around with chords, but can expand as needed.  I've got to master this confounded thing (guitar), but I need Jacket's help.  I am open to any songs from Tennessee Fire forward.

I wanted to post this in the tabs forum, but it didn't look like there was any general tab discussion there.

I'm trying to think about songs you can just strum away at the chords and wail a little bit.  I'd suggest Evolyn is Not Real, Anytime, At Dawn, and Bermuda Highway.

I suppose you know about the tabs site:

Sweet!  Evelyn and Bermuda Highway are a couple of my favorites!  Open to other suggestions or affirmations as well.

I like doing Master Plan and Into the Woods.
Maybe not the easiest but not hard.

its always great being a guitar and a mmj fan. there songs are normally very simple, and very few chords.            
anytime=3 chord song
gideon= 3 or 4 chord song
hopefully is easy too.          

cheers

I can strum At Dawn and I don't play guitar anymore.
The fact that my hearts beating
is all the proof you need

Yeah, At Dawn is simple. Capo on 1st fret, C, F, G.

Thanks folks!

"At dawn" is perfect, and I am having a great time monkeyin' with "Evelyn".  

I will definately be going back through the other suggestions once my fingertips grow back.
