| Song suggestions?

I have sort of an odd thing here. I've always played in bands with a very strong lead player, who could handle most any guitar-based tunes. Recently I was asked to join with some folks who intend to play festivals, parties, and occasionally a club.
They have drums, keys (not strong keys), two (2) acoustic guitars, and now me. One of the guys plays a little electric guitar, but basically they are two rhythm players. Nice Taylors. Very good rhythm players, but very weak when it comes to lead.
The vocals of the band are strong, but it looks like we will need to avoid lead-heavy songs. Everyone is in their 50's, and will be playing mostly to crowds in that demographic, give or take a few years to the younger.
So here's the question: Can anyone help me with some songs that we can do that will keep things moving pretty well without requiring skill sets we don't have?
I just heard Jackson Browne's "Doctor My Eyes", and it sounded pretty good. "For What It's Worth" is another.
They have about 50 songs, but too many of them sound alike.
Any good suggestions?
