"I'm hunting around for suitable songs that already have two (or three) guitars."

You can play folksong with two guitars, three guitars, a guitar and a banjo, guitar, bass and mandolin, or whatever. It's not like so-called "classical" music, where the instrumentation is usually specified. (Music of the Baroque era and before is different in this respect.)

There are books with arrangements of folksongs for a single guitar, and there might well be some with arrangements for two guitars, but that's not what people who play in folk clubs generally play.

So, any two songs you like. How about _English Country Garden_ and _Black Velvet Band_?
