It's one of the more challenging Dave songs, But for a beginner I wouldn't reccomend it.

Don't forget about Halloween, kick ass song. Spoon is also pretty easy if you like playing chords, as is Song That Jane Likes. You can also try a dumbed down version of Loving Wings, without the quick plucks on the G string.

just for your info you can play the G, C, and F all as a bar and just slide it up..(F when 1st fret barred C=3rd fret G=5th). i don't know how it would sound in the song though.

Song that Jane Likes is a good one, just fast strumming.

I agree with Billie. Go with Song That Jane Likes. There are no wierd "Dave chords" in it...other than moving first position C up a step...but that's not hard. It'll whet your whistle and get you fired up for more.
