Looong time electric player now discovering the acoustic.

Any suggestions for cool acoutic songs to learn?

Thanks in advance

Night Moves

What style or type of acoustic do you like?
Artist, etc?

"Wish You Were Here".

Great song. I would add stairway to heaven too.

 

+1 on what was mentioned above.





I'll also add:


Alice in Chains - Nutshell


Jamey Johnson - In Color (you'll need a capo on the 3rd fret for this one)


The Animals - House of the Rising Sun


Lynyrd Skynyrd - Simple Man


Guns N' Roses - Patience

 

This may be a little too easy for you if you are a good player.  However, I would throw in To Be With You by Mr. Big.  

Not so much for the verses or chords, but mainly for the solo.    I really like what Paul Gilbert did with the solo.   There are a couple different ways you can play it which makes it good to warm up on or just practice in general.   You can either do something like hybrid picking or play it entirely with your fingers.  

I like playing without a pick as much as possible.   The faster sort of scale run down two-thirds of the way through, combined with everything else, is fun to play... Especially if you like playing without a pick like me.
