I started out learning the Major chords and learning songs by my favourite bands. Luckily for me when I started out my favourite band was Nirvana so I found learning their songs rather easy haha. The most important thing for me was building finger strength and muscle memory to move from chord to chord without that awkward pause or any dulled notes. To do this I learned all the major chords and learned songs that incorporated them. Of course suggesting specific songs would be irrelevant since everybody's musical tastes vary, it's paramount that you enjoy what you are learning. Also learning major and minor scales and practicing them a lot will build finger strength greatly.
I've never had formal lessons and I've managed to reach a good level of guitar skill over the past 5 years using this method. Of course self teaching may not work for you but it's an option. I wish you the very best of luck, guitar is a fantastic instrument to play once you've got around the learning stages.
