Stairway to Heaven is an easy song I geuss... it was one of the first I learned to play. It takes a long time to learn but... heh if you can play then everyone will think your good.

Some other easy songs are Smoke on the Water, and 7 nation army.

Thats all I can think of right now. Hope you find those easy enough.

Opeth - Patterns In The Ivy. my favorite song. oh yeah, Opeth is a swedish progressive black/death metal band. http://opeth.com/

however, this song is really mellow. just a steel-stringed and a piano. beut'

Anything by my chemical romance is easy, but its emo, your choice. But I must say House of the Rising Sun by Animals is an easy song to learn.
