If you want to make music come from your guitar, search for Horse With No Name tutorial on YouTube. It’s a common first song, it only has two chords and can be played with a simple strumming pattern. I tried it when I was 4 weeks in and my wife could recognize what I was playing so I considered that a success.

It wasn’t until the 8 month mark that I got the proper strumming pattern down for it, but it sounds good even with just strumming once per measure.
