                     House of the rising sun - the Animals

                    Am C D F Am C E E

                   Am         C        D     F
                   There is a house in New Orleans,
                   Am            C      E    E
                   They call the Rising Sun
                   Am            C       D           F
               And It's been the ruin of many a poor boy
                   Am         E         Am    C D F Am E Am E
                   And God, I know, I'm one

                   Am        C     D     F
                   My mother was a tailor
                   She sewed my new blue jeans
                   My father was a gambling man
                   Down in New Orleans

                   And the only things a gambler needs
                   Is a suitcase and a trunk
                   And the only time he's satisfied
                   Is when he's all a-drunk

                   I've got one foot on the platform
                   The other foot on the train
                   I'm going back to New Orleans
                   To wear the ball and chain

                   G mothers, tell your children
                   Not to do what I have done
                   Spend your life in sin and misery
                   In the house of the Rising Sun

                   Repeat First Verse




___ Blue Wave/QWK v2.12




I think this is an improvement over the tab you have for the Animals'
version of House of the Rining Sun. This version has the descending bass
that really makes their arrangement.
I play the F# in the D/F# chord with my thumb; the chord could also be
fingered like this:

--2--ring finger
--3--pinkie
--2--middle finger
--0--
--0--
--2--forefinger

I generally use a full barre for the F, but that could also be done by
stopping the low E string with the thumb.



House of the Rising Sun
The version roughly follows the Animals version, but it's
been a while since I played it, and I may have muffed a few
notes. Anyway, this gives you the general idea.
It's my second try at writing and posting tab; if anyone can give
a helpful suggestion to make it better next time, I'd appreciate
the advice.

"House of the Rising Sun" as covered by the Animals
transcribed by Thom A G II

Of the versions I have seen so far, none seem quite right to me.  After
reviewing the others I listened to it and here's what I got.

standard tuning, 6/8 time (six beats per measure)

intro: A E7 A C D F A E7 A E7 A - i think, but it is
somewhere in the middle of the regular progression:
A C D F | A C E E7 | A C D F | *A E7 A C D F A E7 A E7 | repeat thru out

RYTHM:/   /// / / | /   /// / / | ETC
BEATS:1 2 3 4 5 6 | 1 2 3 4 5 6 | ECT.

I heard mention of the bass notes for the guitar being instead of
mine as A down to G down to F down to E  I deffinitely do not hear
that in the animals recorded cover of this song.  If there is something
I just dont know, and you do please make it known.
