The Last Bass Outpost

Looking for some new songs to use with the autistic kids I coach, hoping you guys can come up with some suggestions

I need some more of what i call three chord wonders, the kind of thing where the chorus and verse are the same progression,  they don't have to be just three chords but do need to be major chords so they can be played on a barred open e tuned guitar.
 
  the best one I use is Sweet home Alabama, but also Hit the Road jack, the Passenger, Twist and Shout and All along the Watchtower(played with A major rather than Minor)

 I know there are more out there but struggling to come up with them

cheers

Hi Copacetic,
    I already work as a care worker in  in a special needs school where some  of the things I do is run music clubs and activities   for the lower functioning and coach bands for the higher functioning students.
     
  hence I'm basically looking to get a ticket so i can be paid a proper amount, as well as improve my practice.

  So, in an attempt to get paid properly for what i do , i am going to try and become certified as a Music Therapist.

    Unfortunately the music therapy qualifications are all MA level and I left school with no qualification  so I have a long road ahead.

    The first step is an A level equivalent course, To ease myself back in to academia I figured I'd do something that I enjoy and won't be too challenging, so i have started a level3 certificate in Music performance.
    It tickles me no end to refer to it as an NVQ in Bass Guitar. Its really weird being in a class full of kids and  I'm older than all of the teachers, but its quite invigorating performing with people that are fresh and unjaded. Though I can hear the laughter in my head of the Roadie Brethren when I'm sitting there being taught how to coil a cable.

 anyhoo, I have my first assignment and I thought it might raise a chuckle with you guys. I have to write 1000 words on:

       Your instrument and its Parts
       Critique your own instrument and associated equipment with regard to effective, safe operation and current selection.
     Include the following:
            How does your instrument work?
            What are the integral parts to your instrument?
             Detail routine maintenance undertaken.
            Give some examples of makes, models and associated equipment.
            Put together a “tech spec” for your perfect equipment set up, referencing personal and creative needs.
            What are the Health & Safety concerns relating to your instrument

Hell I could do a thousand words just on part 5 alone

functional, its all carved out  inside so its kinda a semi

not too bothered with the niceties of the sound, I'm learning songs for college and need to play along with them, my bass amp has neither line in or headphone out, my guitar amp does

this may be a stupid question but ; not playing a bass through a guitar amp is about the speakers right? I should be ok if Im going through headphones?
