    Hmm...
    Not Dylan, definitely not the Animals, probably traditional.
    The chords posted earlier aren't the way I play it, though I haven't
    played it in a while and may be a bit off. I'll check it when I get home
    and if it's really wrong I'll repost tomorrow.Here goes.
    
    I don't recall precisely what these chords are, just that (I'm pretty
    sure) they're Asomething and Bsomething...
     
    Asomething:
    E  3
    B  2
    G  2
    D  2
    A
    E
    
    Bsomething:
    E  1
    B  3
    G  3
    D  3
    A
    E
    
    
    
    Again, I don't remember the precise chord names.
    
    Play this clean and get a friend to tool along with you on a cheezy
    Casio keyboard for that Animals sound.
    
    
    
    HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN
        by some long-dead blues warrior
    
    
          Dm      F       G        Bsomething
    There is a house in New Orleans
    
          Dm      F       Asomething
    They call the rising sun
    
            Dm       F        G      Bsomething
    and its been the ruin of many a poor boy
    
         Dm   Asomething Dm
    and God, I know I'm one
    
    
    (repeat as necessary through the rest of the song. 
    Approximate lyrics continue)
    
    My mother was a tailor
    She sewed my new blue jeans
    My father was a gamblin' man
    Down in New Orleans
    
    Now the only things a gambler needs
    is a suitcase and a trunk
    and the only time he's feeling satisfied 
    is when he's on a drunk
    
    Now mothers 
    Tell your children
    Not to do what I have done
    And spend your life in sincere misery
    in the House of the Rising Sun
    
    --------
    For each chord I play a little run down the strings in order like this,
    hitting the 2 bass strings first:
    EA DGBeBG
    (Does this make sense? It means just start at the bass E string and go
    down in order and come back up. But you knew that. Just listen to the
    song, timing is pretty simple.)
    Again, if I discover that this is really wrong I'll repost.
    
    Swing,
    jd
    listening to "Bonzo Goes to Bitburg" while watching RR at the Repub. Convention
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    This is my version of House Of the Rising Sun, by the Animals.  I think 
    I learned this from some book or something.
    
    
    The chord changes are as follows:
    
    Am C D F Am C E E Am C D F Am E Am E .... {repeats, ad infinitum}
    
    The chords are arpeggiated starting at the 5th string, all the 
    way to the 1st string and then back up the 2nd and 3rd strings.
    
    For example:
    
       The song begins with arpeggiated Am (let arpeggios ring out)
    
    	E ---------------
    	A -0-------------
    	D ---2-----------
    	G -----2-------2-
    	B -------1---1---
    	E ---------0-----
    
    After arpeggiating for a while the song "breaks out" and instead of 
    arpeggios, the guitarist strums the same chords in the following rythm 
    (this is also the rythm for the arpeggios):
    
         |   |-|-|   |   |   |  
         | 	 | | |   |   |   |  
        0   0 0 0   0   0   0   
    
    
    The chord voicings I use follow:
    
    
      Am    C    D    F    E	
    ----------------------------------------------
    ---0----3----0----0----2----------------------
    ---2----2----0----3----2----------------------
    ---2----0----3----2----1----------------------
    ---1----1----2----1----0----------------------
    ---0----0----3----1----0----------------------
    
    
    I'm not positive F chord...  It could be a barre chord, but I can't switch
    to it fast enough, so I use the one shown above.
    
    
    The bass line, I believe, is the note of every chord, an 
    octave lower.  So, the bass line would be:
    
     Am  C  D  F  Am  C  E  E  Am  C  D  F 	Am  E  Am  E
    ---------------------0--0-------------------0------0-
    --0--3---------0--3---------0--3---------0------0----
    --------0--3----------------------0--3---------------
    -----------------------------------------------------
    
    
    Both the bass line and guitar remain the same throughout the entire song 
    (except when the guitar switches from arpeggios to chords, for only the 
    last verse, I think,  and then back to arpeggios)

    Another way of playing House of the R. Sun:
    
    There is a house in New Orleans
            Am7  Cmj7      Dm7     Fmj7
    
    They call the Rising Sun
              Am7    Cmj7   E#9/ Eb9         (# = sharp  and b = 
    flat, in this case change from
                                                                  a 
    sharp 9 to a flat 9, "one bar each")
    It's been the ruin of many a poor boy
          Am7       Cmj7    Fmj7            Fm7
    
    And god I know, I'm one
           Am7  E#9 / Eb9 / Am7      ( in this case E#9 and Eb9 are 
    being played for
                                                        only "one 
    BEAT each)
    
    Have fun with this version of "House of........."!!! It will 
    leave you lots of room
    to improvise!
