Simple guitar songs for beginning musician

Check out www,danmansmusic.com
They have a free library of 1000s of songs/lyrics/tablature
which will save you buying songbooks.
Not sure what to suggest but suggest not the Beatles nor Dylan.

Playing with, watching other PLAYERS who are more advanced always helped me.

I like most types of music, but mostly folk, rock (not metal, grunge, etc) Also some country (but not pop country)

Also check out the tablature page on harmony-central at: http://www.harmony-central.com/Guitar/tab.html.
