Question for guitar players

I'm learning to play the guitar and Mull of Kintyre is doing my nut in Can anyone tell me which (if any) of Prince's songs are easy to play, and also give me the chords. Thanks muchly.

I heard that Guitar is easy to play.

Raspberry Beret:
Intro: | A G | D/F# | G | D G A |

A G D/F#
I was working part time in a five-and-dime,
G D G A
My boss was Mr. McGee.
G D/F#
He told me several times that he didn't like my kind,
G D G A
'Cause I was a bit 2 leisurely.
G D/F#
Seems that I was busy doing something close 2 nothing,
G D G A
But different than the day before.
G D/F#
That's when I saw her, ooh, I saw her
G
She walked in through the out door (out door).


[Chorus]:

A G D/F#
She wore a Raspberry beret
G D G A
The kind U find in a second hand store
G D/F#
Raspberry beret
G D A
And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more
G D/F#
Raspberry beret
E A
I think I love her



A G D/F#
Built like she was, uh, she had the nerve 2 ask me
G D G A
If I planned 2 do her any harm
G D/F#
So, look here, I put her on the back of my bike and-a we went riding
G D G A
Down by old man Johnson's farm
G D/F#
I said now, overcast days never turned me on
G D G A
But something about the clouds and her mixed
G D/F#
She wasn't 2 bright but I could tell
G
When she kissed me

She knew how 2 get her kicks


[Chorus]:

A G D/F#
She wore a Raspberry beret
G D G A
The kind U find in a second hand store
G D/F#
Raspberry beret
G D A
And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more
G D/F#
Raspberry beret
E A
I think I love her


D A/C# D A/C#
The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof,
NC
And the horses wonder who U are.
D A/C# D A/C#
Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees
NC
U feel like a movie star
G F#m E
Listen, they say the first time ain't the greatest
NC
But I tell ya, if I had the chance 2 do it all again
G F#m
I wouldn't change a stroke 'cause baby I'm the most,
E
With a girl as fine as she was then.

Thanks, Chakah

The Cross has gotta be the easiest. Chords E and A all the way through....

Not if you have short fingers.

Guitar (the song) is pretty easy to play. It's a funk chord pull-off in 8th notes. Finger the 2nd string in the 7th fret and the 1st string on the 9th...then strum that chord 8 times...on the 9th time, pull your finger off the 1st string and play both 1st and 2nd strings in the 7th fret for another 8 strums, then drop that same fingering (holding the 1st and 2nd strings at the same time) to the 5th fret for another 16 strums....that's it!

It's easier to learn if you practice while the song is playing (that's how I learned it).

I haven't figured out the verse of the song, yet.
