Songs to play in remembrance
What are some good songs to play in remembrance of my friend Bradly. He shot himself wednesday. Chord songs are recommended, because I've played a few in remembrance of him, and I cry and can only play chords when I'm crying.

Try tuning to DADGAD. It's really nice. I played some arrangements at my grandfather's funeral in DADGAD.

Hows about you play songs that your friend liked to listen to? He'd appreciate that more than anything I think.

Try Knockin On Heavens Door by Bob Dylan. Easy to play and kinda fits.
This should never happen to anyone, its so sad. |

"so far away" by Avenged Sevenfold.. easy song. Em,D,Bm,G,C for the verse. Em G Am Em D Em G for the chorus if i remember correctly. or "far from home" by 5FDP. thats a drop D song but easy as well.
I've lost a few good friends over the years and i sympathize with you. |

All other great song suggestions aside, that may be the most insightful. What better tribute than to at least try to bring something of your friend's life to the gathering?

I know I am very late in this. I am sorry to hear about your friend. A great song tribute song is From Where You Are by lifehouse. It has a relatively simple picking pattern, which after a little while, you will be able to play easily. It was the song I used to learn to fingerpick.
