get some acoustic tabs.

prayer, misunderstood, saturday night etc. chord work is vital at the beginning.

Misunderstood goes too fast for a beginner, Saturday Night has barre chords. Prayer is a good one. Except for the chorus there are no quick chord changes. It was one of my first songs .

Just Older is quite simple chords, and the intro lick to Wanted Dead Or Alive is simple too.

as u put it that way

its genereally not too tough tho...but the bounce album has a whole is pretty simple i think...as far as acoustics, its good to get chord structures of the songs...and play the rythm..

P.H
E------------
B------------
G------------
D------------
A---1---2---
E------------

?
thats the one...he usually plays it throughout the song, not just on the outro chorus. gives the song some good kick.

For a starter that lick is way too fast.

I only started a couple of months ago, and that was one of the first licks I learned...and I could play it properly within a few weeks of trying, lol

The start of the duelling banjos track from deliverance is quite simple too...although not Bon Jovi obviously, lol
