   What are some good acoustic guitar songs?
   
   Kindly recommend me some acoustic guitar songs to play. (rhythm guitar playing)
   
   1. Actually I'm in a mood to play some sad songs (lyrics wise) on guitar.
   
   2. Songs like WONDERWALL (Oasis) or YOU & ME (Lifehouse) are most welcome (whether sad or not) these were superb!

   tonymead60 has it right with "Norwegian Wood" - it's so beautiful, maybe a bit tricky to get just right with basic strumming... I like to play finger-style the most, (on an acoustic guitar, that is), so I'd recommend:
   
   The Beatles - Blackbird
   Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven
   Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven (of course!)
   Opeth - Benighted
              - Patterns in the Ivy (Instrumental)
   Pink Floyd - Is There Anybody Out There?
                     - Hey You
   (of course, anything else by the great Floyd - whether finger-style or not!)
   ...and one of my absolute favourites, Jess Buckley's version of Leonard Cohen's moving classic "Hallelujah"
   
   ... just to name a few... If you want to get REALLY technical into some amazing acoustic-guitar work, check out what you can find of Antoine Dufour - he uses a lot of really cool tricks, on and off the fret-board, percussive stuff on the body of the guitar, etc... Check him out on YouTube if you haven't already been blown away by his stuff!

   I checked out the 'Norwegian Wood' and I thank you a lot to give me such a wonderful song. It was awesome and quite relaxing to play on the guitar. I really loved it

   Good Riddance, Blackbird, Angie, Only Livin' Boy In New York are all songs that work well on acoustic.
