There should be several books available to show you how to put phrases and chords together. Look for intro books for beginners and intermediates, any sale person should be able to point you in the right direction. Dou read sheet?

I never really got into playing other people's songs. I did the cover thing when I was in high school, but after that it was all about creating to me. I would concentrate on developing your dexterity. After that, to me, it's about taking the essence of your favorite players. Not necessarily copying them. You might be surprised at how good your own music can be since it will always mean more to you than someone elses expressions of themselves.

Hi guys! I am (still) a beginner guitar player and would like to play something someday. What is the easiest song in the entire world that a complete idiot can play? To date, I am completely stumped by Iron Man, Crazy Train, Sweet Child of Mine and Smells Like Teen Spirit. Maybe I need to trade the V in for a drum set?
