Mine was "Ball and Chain" by Social Distortion. Later I learned that I was playing it wrong. I played it D, A, G. It's played Eb, Bb, Ab.

Funny topic! My first song: "House of the Rising Sun." Second: "Wolverton Mountain."

Honestly, I don't think I remember what was first, maybe Knockin' On Heaven's Door? Then I think there was lots of oddball stuff that most of you might not know.

Walk Don't Run, learned it on the accordion first, but I didn't like how it would sound, when I finally had a guitar, learned that one first :)

It was either Blitzkrieg Bop or it was Drain You by Nirvana.
