I’ve been enjoying the fingerstyle stuff as a nice detour on my learning journey. For this module I picked “Everybody hurts” and “Summer of '69”. Nothing else matters is a good tune but I prefer to learn entire songs. I’m also working on Dust in the Wind - I can play it all the way through fairly well but have only memorized about the first 3/5 of it. It’s a confusing task to memorize for sure but I like to strength train my brain like this.

We’re Going To Be Friends by The White Stripes is a great fingerstyle song. Slightly more complex than just a back and forth motion, but it’s basically the same pattern the whole way.

Bob Dylan’s song Buckets of Rain uses both Dsus2 and 4 also. It’s a good song to practice sus chords on.

Maybe a modified version for standard tuning - the original is in an open tuning.

It’s more difficult on the strumming and more simple with the chords, but for a sus song practice could you do “Semi-Charmed Life” by Third Eye Blind!
Kiss me by sixpence none the richer!
For Asus2, Asus4, and an Esus4 embellishment, the opening of Feel a Whole Lot Better by The Byrds is easy to play. I used Tom Petty’s cover to learn it. The whole song needs an F#m, B, and G, and there’s a D to Dsus2 to open chord B7 that sounds great. I sussed (heh heh) it out myself, so I may some things wrong.
