10 Easy Campfire Guitar Songs

Nobody is cooler then campfire guitar guy right?  Well, maybe just campfire guitar girl but that depends.  With a beer in hand and the night unfolding there’s no better way to spend the night then rocking out around the fire.  It’s even cooler if you have a few guitar players and a set of hand drums.  The more the merrier right.  With just these ten easy campfire songs you can be that cool guy or girl.  And lets face it,  everyone knows the cool guy never goes back to his tent alone, right?…

So what are some quick songs you can pickup and learn for the campfire?  Some are old songs, some are new, and well some just aren’t anything you have listened to in a while.  Still for some reason, here at the campfire, with a beer in hand, everyone loves that song……..

Here’s a few more I have heard around the fire, maybe not the easiest, maybe not traditional but they were fun.

1. Gangsters Paradise – Acoustic Coolio- nothing more fun.  Have the whole campfire goes sing the chorus  and bridge.  Chorus: “We’ve been spending most our lives living in a gansters paradise” Bridge: “Tell me why are we — so blind to see–that one ones we hurt- are you and me”  Good sample of acoustic cover here
2. I will Survive – Cake’s Version, Everyone knows the words
