"Let it be" by the Beatles
"She's got you" by Patsy Cline
There's a million songs that are just 1,6-,4,5, and Also 1,6-,2-,5. Some have been mentioned already.
Since you're teaching beginners, "She's got you" may not be the best. "Let it be" might be a stretch too, for some.
John Steele: "There will never be another you" is a great song. And it has a 6 minor chord somewhere I'm sure. But I would think the music teachers who have students who are ready to tackle that tune are FEW AND FAR BETWEEN. haha.
Country Roads has a lot of chord changes, too. But the chords are all major/minor triads.

Wasn't there a song back in the 50s. "Since I fell For You" by the Skyliners (or some similar sounding name,) that used that progression?David Doggett wrote:Alicia Keys current hit "No One" has the progression I V VIm IV, which was also the progression in The Blackeyed Peas hit "Where is the Love" a couple of years ago. It's a popular progression for R&B ballads these days.
