Uber Classic Acoustics

Post by Teego Time »

So I need some more ideas for acoustic songs to learn. I'm targeting songs specifically like:

Babylon - David Gray
Collide - Howie Day
Jolene - Ray Lamontagne
So Sorry - Howie Day

Yeah, I'd like to learn some songs that other people will actually know.

No Fatjack, you're not even human. =P

a great crowd pleaser is rivers of babylon by sublime, great acoustic song especially for two guitars. There's a good tab for it over at mxtabs.
