How to play 10 beginner friendly 90s songs on acoustic guitar (easy chords)

In this video, I break down easy versions of some classic 90s jams. These songs are a lot of fun and I use them all the time for gigs and jam sessions. Some of the chords may push you if you're in the early days of learning your chords, but anything that's out of reach now would make for a great goal to master in the near future.

For Zombie by The Cranberries
Em C G D work well enough, I'll give a more detailed version in an upcoming video.
D_D_D_DU_UD_DUDU is how they strum it acoustic.

For Dreams by The Cranberries
E Asus4 Open B sound good, with a brief interlude using G and C
For strumming, try starting with DUD_DUDU then loop _UD_DUDU
Alternatively, capo 2 and use D G A, but the interlude becomes F and Bb. You could just use power chords for F and Bb or skip that part all together.
