Well, I always mention "Free Fallin" but "Stairway to Heaven" sounds great on acoustic, too. You could try your hand at some easier classical stuff. Try your luck with some Dave Matthews as well. I don't particularly love his music, but it's a nice acoustic exercise. Besides, with the ones I've suggested, you could practice playing and singing simultaneously.

Early David Bowie, songs like "Andy Warhole" of Hunky Dory or "Rock n Role Suicide" off Ziggy Stardust.

Not the easiest acoustic song to play, but my favorite at this moment is by Steve Vai.

Brandon's Costumes. Very awesome indeed.
Sometimes I hit notes only dogs can hear.
