5 Beginner Country Guitar Songs that are Fun and Easy to Play

4. “Ring of Fire” by Johnny Cash

Here comes another Johnny Cash number which is one of the all-time greatest country songs and fun to play. It symbolizes love as ‘fire’ and explains how the singer has fallen within the ring of fire.

It has only three chords D, C and G which is great for beginners. Following the trend of the songs of the 1960s, the length of this song is also around two and a half minutes. Although the strumming pattern is a little bit fast, it is not that a beginner guitarist won’t be able to pick it up. The combination of strumming technique and arpeggio can take this song to a whole new level. To hit the correct string, you’ll need excellent finger coordination. However, such a fundamental skill is crucial for playing any song on the guitar.
