How to play House Of The Rising Sun – The Animals
House of the rising sun is one of those classic guitar songs that everybody should know how to play. The song features an instantly recognisable arpeggio.
The chords are fairly easy, except for the chord F that might be a little bit tricky. I have included 2 versions – one with an easy F and a regular one. Pay attention to the last note in the arpeggio as this is the one that will help us to change chords smoothly.
Song structure:
Section 1: Am / C / D / F / Am / C / E / E
Section 2: Am / C / D / F / Am / E / Am / E
