Best Acoustic Guitar Songs to Play at Parties

Introduction
There are many popular and easy acoustic guitar songs which even a beginner, who has mastered at least three major chords, the art of strumming in time and the ability to shift between each chord, can play. Some very well-known and popular songs that fall into this category include: Sweet Home Alabama by Lynyrd Skynyrd, Blowin in the wind by Bob Dylan, Bad Moon Rising by Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Wild Thing by the Troggs to name just a few.

Recap: Basic Techniques you need to know
Three basic techniques you need to master before you can start playing your favourite songs are: one, you need to know at least three major guitar chords and you should throw in at least three minor chords. You need to know these chords well enough that each chord you play sounds smooth, clear and crisp. Two: you must be able to switch from chord to chord easily and quite naturally which suggests your fingers know what they are doing; and you need to do this in time. And three, you need the ability to strum in time with every song you play. These techniques take practice and patience and required an investment of your time.
