Questions about I'm Yours on guitar

What key is I'm Yours in?

G major. The whole song loops the classic I–V–vi–IV — G (I), D (V), Em (vi) and C (IV). There is no capo, so guitar, piano and bass all play these same chords at the same pitch.

Is I'm Yours a good beginner guitar song?

Yes — it's one of the most-recommended first songs. It uses just four open chords (G, D, Em, C) in the same repeating I–V–vi–IV loop the whole way through, so once you can change between those four you can play the entire song. The only real challenge is the bouncy off-beat strum.
