Here's a song that features them all (and pretty much only them) :

Man on the moon by R.E.M

Should be really good practice! Kind of a graduation song to finish the modules on C, D, G, Am and Em chords.

Actually there's also a Bm in there. All the chords in the key of G.

It's a lot more challenging than Lisa's songs in this module, especially the chorus with all 5 chords in rapid fire sequence. But I feel it is achievable. And fun, since it's such a fantastic song.

Great idea,

I'm an REM fan so keen to find songs to practice with what I've learnt already.

BUT not try anything too hard and lose interest.

I'ts been suggested to me that so Bob Dylan songs might be good to start too.

I tried Zombie by the Cranberries the other day and enjoyed that.

Just 4 chords repeated but great for practice.

Cheers,

Dean

What are the chords for Zombie? On the ultimate-guitar app it says Em, C, G and D/F#... whatever that last one means?!

PS: give What's Up by 4 non Blondes a try. G, Am, C, G.
