I made a quick pass through Rise Up Singing for some beginners we are starting here, looking for two-chord songs. The following are the ones I found-- probably not complete, maybe a few errors crept in, but a starting point anyway if you are using RUS.

The index I made does not include songs from the posts above that do appear in RUS, but appear there as needing more than two chords.

I have not played through all these myself, yet-- no guarantees the RUS arrangements are correct.
