I want to perform Vocaloid songs with an acoustic guitar! A collection of recommended tracks for beginners
These days, there are many people who started playing instruments because of Vocaloid songs.
Just by watching cover bands and acoustic cover arrangements on video sites, you can tell how many people are into it.
So in this article, I’ve compiled a list of Vocaloid songs you can play on acoustic guitar!
I think it’ll be especially helpful for beginners when choosing songs.
By the way, a simple trick to make singing and playing easier is to use an accessory called a capo.
With a capo, you can sometimes avoid having to finger difficult chords.

I want to perform Vocaloid songs with an acoustic guitar! A roundup of beginner-friendly tracks (11–20)
Solar System DiscoNayutan Seijin
A Vocaloid song that makes you want to throw your fist in the air and sing along! NayutalieN’s “Solar System Disco” was released in 2017.
It’s an irresistibly catchy dance-rock-style love song.
The melody is so catchy that once you hear it, it won’t leave your head.
In the final key change, all the chords go up by a half step, so there are quite a lot of chords to memorize.
But that only happens if you try to play it with an “easy arrangement using a capo.” If you learn it with barre chords from the start, even when it modulates, only your fret positions change—the actual finger shapes you use to press the strings stay the same.
This is the perfect chance to master barre chords!
Huh? Ah, I see.Chōchō P
How about playing a mature-sounding Vocaloid song in a cool style? This track by Chouchou-P was released in 2010.
Its lyrics, which hint at a precarious romantic relationship, pair perfectly with the cool arrangement, making it a heart-racing Vocaloid tune to listen to.
If you’re used to barre chords, you can probably play it in the original key, but since the chord changes are quick, it might be better to start with a capo and an easy-chord arrangement.
Let’s play it with lots of energy!
Night Sky Patrol of TomorrowOrangestar
The Vocaloid song “Asu no Yozora Shoukaihan” is hugely popular among younger listeners.
Its fresh, easy-to-listen-to melody is fantastic, isn’t it? Many people probably want to play this song on acoustic guitar, too.
It’s an easy piece even for acoustic guitar beginners, so give it a try.
If you can play the chorus, you should be able to play the other sections smoothly as well!
seems like (just) my imaginationChōchō P
How about playing a bittersweet Vocaloid song on acoustic guitar? Chouchou-P’s “Kokoronashi” is beginner-friendly, so definitely give it a try.
The song uses many tension chords, which create a sense of melancholy and poignancy—you’ll find the chord tones very pleasing.
Once you can perform it as a sing-and-play piece, both guitar and vocals will become even more enjoyable!
Lily of the Endless NightKasamura Tōta
How about trying a tear-jerking Vocaloid ballad? “Akenai Yoru no Lily” by Tota Kasamura is a track released in 2018.
The gentle tones of the piano and Fukase’s straightforward vocals make it a piece that really touches the heart.
In a world that has reached its end, the protagonist and Lily spend the same time together, and just imagining their story naturally brings tears to your eyes.
Alongside the bright, basic chords like C, D, E, F, G, A, and B, you’ll also encounter chords with a different nuance, such as Cmaj7.
But don’t worry even if you see chord names you don’t recognize—Cmaj7 can actually require fewer fingers than C.
Lonely EnvyDenporu P
It’s a song characterized by the rhythm section and the tense guitar lines riding on top, but if you match your strumming to the original, you can get a similar feel even with just an acoustic guitar—so try playing with that in mind.
There aren’t any particularly difficult chords overall, but chords like D/F#, which requires gripping the neck and fretting the 6th string with your thumb, and B7, which you need to fret with all four fingers standing, appear here and there.
If you’re not used to changing chords, practice slowly until you can fret them cleanly.
Since the tempo isn’t that fast, it’s a recommended number for beginners as well.

two-breath walkingDECO*27
This is a work that makes you think with its deep storytelling—devoted love that could also be seen as a dependent relationship.
DECO*27’s popular Vocaloid track “A Two-Breath Walk” is a rock number released in 2009.
The catchy yet cool composition is complemented by Miku’s clearly defined vocals.
Above all, its lyrics invite rich interpretation, which is a major appeal of this Vocaloid song.
While the chords aren’t particularly complex, there are many chord changes and a relatively wide variety.
That said—or rather, because of that—once you can play this song, you’ll likely be able to play a good portion of other works as well.
