Which track from IV do you think made the list?

"Gave my love a chicken that had no bone ...?"

You're not gonna find any of that crap around here!

These are tried-and-true acoustic rockers that have scaled the highest echelons of radio immortality. Some are sweet, some are somber, and some just rock, despite having a musical engine based on meticulously aligned wood and steel strings.

But hey, sometimes the simplest statements are the most profound. Take a look at Guitar World's list of 50 great acoustic rock jams and vote for your favorite. And if you have a tough time deciding, check out this photo gallery and overview of the tunes that made the cut.

Happy voting!
