At Christmas, you can do a nice harmony part to "Greensleeves" using only B and A. (Each note is held for an entire measure, 3 beats long.)

B A A
B B A A
B B A A
B A B B
(repeat)

The rest of the song can be played on the piano, in the key of e minor. My beginners always liked this, and it was so easy!
