At this point, I am only playing parts of songs and mostly the openings.
- Crazy Train - only the opening and very slow at that. Good for stretching
- Iron Man - Starts with a 2-string power chord that moves for fret 3 to 11. Much easier after it changes to single string.
- No Rain, Blind Melon - some pinky-hammering
- Wonderful Tonight - just the picking/bending part.
- Beat it - more stretching
- A very simple version of the Star Spangled Banner which has been more challenging that I expected.

I need to pick an entire song and go for it but my chords and strumming accuracy isn't there yet.
