uuhh.. i'm not the best person to talk about guitars since i'm a bass players... but still... i can play a few songs on my acoustic guitar:
Coldplay's green eyes was the first song i learned, and it's really easy... Oasis' Stand By Me and Travis' driftwood aren't hard too... Oh, and radiohead's exit music is easy too.
Oh, and you can find these songs tabs here:

Hope this helps you.

little nemo, I wouldn't pick wonderwall, you have to use some chords like B or F# in which you have to use a bar (well I don't know how to put it, when you have tu use your finger to silence the strings you don't want to sound)... I would recommend One I love (in a chord version) which is basicly A C G D all the time..
or you could play Green eyes... yes, green eyes is my pick. Oh, and try help is round the corner

All of Coldplay's music is pretty basic and easy on the guitar, just pick one.
