Please recommend me songs that's suitable for beginners to play. Thanks.

So far I've attempted

4 Non Blondes - What's Going On
Cranberries - Linger

I need more songs or I might get bored and quit learning altogether!

nirvana songs are really easy to learn, or try buying guitar magazines that teach you tab and practise the bits that you pick up in them. I taught myself to play guitar from magazines and books and I've been playing for 13 years now, I think I'm pretty shithot!

Its good to start out with 3 chord simple songs (a key). Once you learn the key of C,, then you can play a 1000 songs in that key.. LOL Even more if you transpose.

Most pop songs are 3 chord keys, and are simple for just rhythm work (strumming). If you want to really learn a lot, and play deeper, you should consider lessons from a music store. They will teach you the right way, and prevent bad habits from starting in your playing.
