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
So 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

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.
