Default Quick! recommend me dead easy songs for acoustic guitar

I'm armed with my mighty repertoire of 20 or so songs for Reading, along with my tiny Crafter guitar, but there's a problem- they're all songs I like, and nobody likes songs I like but me I think 10 of them are Carter USM

So, using preferrably only roots, no barres (can't do barre chords worth a damn on acoustic, the only exception I make is F#m), what songs can I knock out in a day that other people will ever have heard of apart from me, my brother, my mate Graham, and his mate Robert?

This isn't false modesty, I'm extremely rubbish...

"house of the rising sun" and "nights in white satin"... all I ever learned to play, so must be easy.

Also going to Reading me

That would be because his sword is actually a crossbow, and the scary man is actually me in my OTHER leathers, which will be getting an airing over the weekend, because its "that time of year again"

Oops... well my weapon recognition skills only really begin with guns.

Are you in a re-enactment society, or does "that time of the year" refer to something else

Bloody impressive leathers though ...
