If you can actually sing emotively, why not cover the greatest ever?

This is a beautiful acoustic song. I am not sure what counts as too difficult though.

Here is another one I like on acoustic:

I'd say these songs are fairly easy depending on your experience(I love playing them pretty often). If you're just a beginner, I would suggest not trying to tackle the general.

Some Honorable mentions that I don't have space for a video:

3rd planet - modest mouse
Iris - Goo goo dolls
Time of your life - Green day
If I had a million dollars - Barenaked ladies

Also, dozens of tabs for all of their songs:

My personal favorites (slash ones that would be awesome-est to cover, and also almost purely acoustic because of youtubes): Amy AKA Spent Gladiator, Attention All Pickpockets, International Small Arms Traffic Blues, Jaipur, Palmcorder Yajna, Baboon, and Going to Georgia, to just scratch the surface.

Youtubes!
