<human>: Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?

I'm 22 and just now beginning to learn guitar. And by just now I mean, today I decided to learn to play the guitar, I've just barely learned a few chords and am struggling with transitioning from chord to chord fluidly. I'm told the best thing to do is find a song you like and learn to play it. So I'm asking you reddit, what would be a good, relatively simple song to learn, preferably that can be played with little or no picking? To give you an idea of the style of music I most enjoy, these are my top 10 favorite bands/artists (according to Last.fm)

* 1.The Decemberists
* 2. The Weepies
* 3. OK Go
* 4. Regina Spektor
* 5. Joshua Radin
* 6. Snow Patrol
* 7. William Fitzsimmons
* 8. Ingrid Michaelson
* 9. Mumford & Sons
* 10. Iron & Wine

It doesn't have to be a song from one of these groups, that's just to give you an idea of what kind of music I like. Thanks Reddit.
<bot>: I'm learning to play the guitar, what's a good beginner song that isn't the same as what everyone always learns first?
