7. I Walk the Line – Johnny Cash
Chords: A, E7, D
Ok, some will now argue that Johnny Cash isn’t a rock performer, but for me, his music (and the lifestyle he had) ticks all the right rock boxes. “I Walk the Line” is arguably his most famous song and it is so fun to play. We put it on our list of easiest acoustic rock songs to play on guitar for beginners because of the chords and their distribution are as simple as they come, and although the strumming may seem complicated, you’ll find it is rather simple after you try it for yourself.
