Wicked game - my favourite go to
Whatās up - my second favourite go to
Three little birds - my third favourite go to
As a bonus - More than words, not really a beginner song but a firm favourite for me.

Do they need to be songs that Justin has tutorials on? If not then I have some suggestions.
Revival- Zach Bryan
Something in the Orange- Zach Bryan (both use the same 3 open chords)
Free Falling- Tom Petty
These were very beginner friendly for me.

Ok, Iāll go with someā¦ not most well known and always played songsā¦
Paul Simon - Was a sunny day
It wasnāt exactly a hit in the charts, but when I rediscovered it lately, it seemed very familiar to me that I had the feeling lots of people knew it. Maybe Iām wrong?
I hear you knockin in the style of Fats Domino, simply with 3 chords like in here:
Edwyn Collins - A girl like you
Justinās got an easy lesson with a capo

Ok, reading your edit, I think I went wrong with going slightly original, off the road.

My first ideas:
San Francisco Scott Mc Kenzie
Mull of Kintyre Wings (before Imagine or Let it be)
Wonderful Tonight Eric Clapton
after having a Quick Look on the list above: some not mentioned before and more beginner-isch - I think.

I hadnāt heard Four Strong Winds in a long long time. Itās a great sing along piece and easy to learn. Also one you can practice playing with all barre chords or all triads to work those guitar muscles.

I nearly suggested Good Riddance and Donāt look back in Anger. Good choices. As you have such good taste Iāll check out the Pearl Jam one you suggested.

As Coda says, people who live in a non english speaking country donāt sing english songs, therefore I would actually add an other constraint:
- songs with international versions.
So I would also select those:
- San Francisco Scott Mc Kenzie
- House of the rising sun
- Take Me Home Country Roads
I would like āanother day in paradiseā by Phil Collins, but I donāt know if it meets the other criteria.
