Acoustic Guitar Fingerpicking Solo

acoustic guitar fingerpicking solo
What guitar songs are good for riffing/fingerpicking/soloing practice?

I’ve been playing guitar for three years, and I just recently got around to learning scales, bar chords and fingerpicking. I practiced the intro to “Dust in the Wind” by Kansas a lot during the year, but that’s about it for my fingerpicking experience. What are some good songs to practice soloing? I’ve used blink-182 (“Dammit” and “What’s My Age Again?”) and a little bit of Metallica (“Enter Sandman”) so far. I have really small hands, so please no big stretches! I use an electric acoustic guitar, if that helps. Thank you so much!
“Blackbird” might be too hard, though I’ll try it out. Thanks so much!

A wonderfull song for fingerpicking is “Blackbird” by the beatles,

Electric riff:
And sweet child o mine (originally slashes warm up but later converted into a song, very good song i might add!)
