Buy one of these
60s
Look down the bottom and you’ll see 50’s, 70’s, 80′, 90’s and acoustic editions etc.
They have chord boxes at the top of the page that are easy to read for a beginner, have a great range of songs, so there will be lots you will like.
As for guitars, it depends on your budget. Spend a wee bit more than a hundred quid starter guitar and you can get something that sounds and plays alot better. You’d be more likely to stick at it.
Something Epiphone or Yamaha perhaps. Ive got an Epiphone PR5-E and it is a great guitar to play. It is almost as easy to play as an electric, sounds great and can be plugged in when needed. It’s the best value for money guitar I can think of.
