  Sure. Try “Ball and Chain” by Social Distortion. The entire song is (I’m assuming it’s in the key of D): D, A, G, D

  Also, “What I Got” by Sublime is even easier. It’s a constant D to G chord progression.

  Good luck!

  I would start using guitar tabs and build up to chords. Tabs use numbers counting from the top of the neck down. Here’s an example:

  The chords E, F, and G:

  e|—0—1—3—
  B|—0—1—0—
  G|—1—2—0—
  D|—2—3—0—
  A|—2—3—2—
  E|—0—1—3—
  E F G
