“Wonderful Tonight”, another song you can work on fairly early. Again “Musicnotes” for the sheet music and you might google “six string fingerpicking” Wonderful Tonight YouTube video to help.

Thanks, @Triple-o. I agree.  If you are fairly early in your learning and looking for a song to play and build confidence this is a good candidate.   Of course, I haven't seen my jam buddies for months.  But just before we had to quit this was a song we jammed.  A lot of fun.

And it is one that if you're wanting to either comp or solo it is a good candidate.  Rhythm it has a very standard strumming pattern,  down down up up down up.  And chords are C, D, Em , G.  Ok, it also has a D/F#, but with a little practice........

And the solo is not that tough.  At my jam one of the guys suggested I play lead.  My response was, of course, WHAT?!?!? but I practiced it the week before we came back and then didn't butcher it too badly😉  Such fun!

In addition to Musicnotes, I know Ultimate Guitar has tabs.
