Hi monkeyman718,

This is a great question. I think you should wait and learn some chords before you jump into learning tabs for your favorite songs, but that's just my advice! I'm glad you're able to read tabs now as they're extremely important in learning guitar. But some songs, even if they sound relatively simple, can be really tough, especially for a beginner. Obviously, you know your skill level better than I do.

One of the first songs I learned was "I can't get no satisfaction" by The Rolling Stones. You can learn the main riff on only one string and it sounds pretty sweet.

Hope that helps and looking forward to hearing about your progress!
