2. American Idiot
Mentions: 9
Up next on our list is American Idiot, the track that gives the name to the band’s seventh album. This is by far one of the best-known tracks from Green Day. Not only is the song a fan-favorite, but it brought the band nominations for four Grammy awards – Record of the Year, Best Rock Performance, Best Rock Song, and Best Music Video .
The song is composed of four chords, so it’s pretty easy to pick out by beginner guitar players, following a steady order only to change during the chorus and solo.
