I'm pretty flexible, but primarily, rock, blues, folk.
Ive stolen my brother's PoS acoustic for a couple weeks, but I'm inexperienced on guitar and looking for some easier songs to cut my teeth on.

Well my cousin is in a band and back when I first attempted to learn to play the guitar myself he suggested some Eagles songs because they're pretty simple to play and sound really good. If you don't like The Eagles try "Bad Moon Rising" by CCR or "Nutshell" by Alice in Chains. I suck on guitar but I actually figured out a little of "She Talks To Angels" by Black Crowes by myself so it may be pretty simple to play all the way through but I'm not sure. You may might also wanna try "About a Girl" by Nirvana.

Word on the street is that alot of Nirvana songs are easy to learn on guitar.

Yeah Come As You Are is hellified easy. Most Blink songs have incredibly easy guitar parts, but I don't think you'd care enough to listen to any of them. Dammit has a really simple and catchy part that is pretty awesome though.

Yeah, the first time I ever held a guitar (my brother's) I was playing it relatively well in 10 minutes.

Not all Nirvana songs are easy to play.
First song I learned was Weezer's "Hash Pipe"

KK - Id reccomend checking out some online thngs to learn some chords and shit, exercise you hand a bit. Everything is gonna be hard if you hand isnt exercised to stretch about the fretboard etc.

when I first started playing piano, I just went online, found a piano tabs website, (I use sheet now) found a song I really liked (Brick by Ben Folds) and just started playing. I never had a lesson or even messed around with a piano before this. I just felt like learning one day and have never stopped since.
But yeah, pick a song you really like and that's fairly easy.

Mostly anything by Nirvana as people mentioned. Come As You Are was the first song I learned, it took me like 3 minutes.
If you want tabs www.mxtabs.net (http://www.mxtabs.net) is the place to go.

Queen's One Vision (Sans solos) is pretty simple, I've discovered. Though the chords for the chorus sound wrong. I think it's just the pos guitar I'm using...My brother got a hand-me-down that was shit in the 70s and it's even more shit now.
Time of your Life by Green Day is insanely easy.
If you like Oasis majority of their songs are reasonably easy to play.
Just got a new guitar. An Epiphone SG so I have been playing quite a bit for the last week. I love the Supersonic guitar part by Oasis. Ace solo on it.
Alot of Bad Religion songs are pertty easy to master.
