What was the 1st song you learned to play on guitar?
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.

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.
