Easy Bass Songs From a Beginner

[chetbassmaster]

A lot of new bassists hunt the web for easy songs. Most places will probably have professionals or highly skilled bassists explaining easy songs; people who don't even remember being a beginner. For me a lot of those songs are pretty hard. I am a beginner bassist, and here are some songs that I find to be pretty easy:

1. Baba O'Riley by The Who. The majority of the song is just F C Bb.
2. Roxanne by The Police. Nice beginner song I picked up pretty quick.
3. Walking on the Moon by The Police. I got the main riff pretty easy. Took a little thought on the chorus, but it worked good.

I hope this helped some people out.

rage against the machine. for a beginner they are easy, but some have parts that are challenging enough to keep you interested.

my first full song was bomb track, it took me an insanely long time to learn the beginning and i was so proud of myself when i mastered it
