Warren Nunes has a good jazz book out. I like a tune in it called "True Blue"

Bunch of trolls... http://mtc.chordbook.com/i/bb/tongue.png

An easy blues song would probably be Texas Flood by Stevie Ray Vaughan. LOL jk
Seriously though, the 12 bar blues is probably the easiest thing to play when starting the blues.
Here is a video on it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjTztfsJ … re=channel (Sorry, if this is too simple for you. I don't really know how good you are at guitar and what you know or don't know. http://mtc.chordbook.com/i/bb/smile.png)

If you remember Georgia Satellites, they did a song in 80's, "Keep Your Hands to Yourself", that is an easy 12-bar Blues format

"Gypsy Road" from Cinderella is a great song with 12-bar blues infusion accomanpied with Power Chords
