road to nowhere bullet for my valentine tabs

Such was Shane’s reluctance to sit down and speak when confronted by a tape recorder. The book was already well past the expected deadline, the advance long since spent, and Victoria confided she hadn’t got much past the first chapter. With the recent publication of Shane MacGowan’s (eagerly anticipated for more years than I care to remember) biography, A Drink With Shane MacGowan, penned by long-time partner Victoria Clarke, memories flooded back of an eventful, even life-threatening, albeit journalistically fruitless sojourn I made with both of them to Shane’s birthplace in Silvermines, Co.

I hope you enjoy these and don't hesitate to add to the list in the comments! :)Įdit: Woah, this is really blowing up, thanks guys! And yes I will try to learn some Tommy Emmanuel one of these days, I just haven't gotten around to it yet :) I have to go to work now, wish I could answer everyone of you, but I will definitely come back and think about a way to include difficulty levels for the songs once I'm back.If you like this please Tweet it, Facebook it or leave a comment Paul Simon - Angie (or Bert Jansch/Davy Graham)Įxtreme - Hole Hearted - Lesson (not that weird of a tuning, it's just half a step down from regular if you want to play along the original)ĭave Van Ronk - Green, Green Rocky Road - Lesson (Thanks Inside Llewyn Davis for this one! Also the lesson is from Dave Van Ronk himself)

Steve Howe - Sketches in the Sun (in Drop D) The Decemberists – Sons & Daughters (this might be the easiest here, just D and G, one of the first songs I learned on the guitar!) The Black Keys – Little Black Submarines - Lessonįlight of the Conchords - A Kiss is not a Contract Jonathan Coulton - Re: Your Brains - Lesson Jonathan Coulton - Now I am an Arsonist (of course Still Alive is a popular choice as well)

Neutral Milk Hotel - The King of Carrot Flowers Pt. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Under the Bridge Lesson Led Zeppelin - Over the Hills and Far Away Lesson Oh and I'm sure I've missed a ton (even some that I learned and didn't think about when making this list), these are just the ones that have stuck with me along the way.īuffalo Springfield - For What It's Worth I've tried to include tutorials when I found some good ones, otherwise you'll have to go and look for tabs or learn by ear (always a good exercise) - you might notice that many of these come from Justin Sandercoe, but it's just because he's very reliable and has made a lot of tutorials! You might notice that the acoustic ones are usually much harder than the rest, which is no surprise since they have to stand up on their own without backing instruments (although the Stephane Wrembel one would technically require a backing guitar to play the chords). I've divided it in a few categories: Classic rock for stuff like the Beatles and Led Zeppelin, not so classic stuff for modern music, acoustic only where you don't need to sing (although most of these songs sound nice enough without singing) and weird tunings which require you to retune your guitar. Hey everyone! This seems to be a recurring topic on r/guitar so I thought I'd make a list of cool songs to play on acoustic that are not Wish You Were Here or Stairway to Heaven!
