House of the Rising Sun

I AM TEACHING FINGERSTYLE GUITAR IN LONDON, SEND ME A MESSAGE IF YOU'RE INTERESTED!

My arrangement of House of the Rising sun, NOT originally by the animals. It's a traditional song. I believe it was originaly mean to to be sung by a woman (with lines such as "it's been the ruin of many a poor girl").
Anyway my version is based on Tommy Emmanuel's. I just randomly decided to try doing some percussion for the pen-penultimate chorus. Felt like a good idea and i think I saw TE do it once or twice. Anyway enjoyy

Well played, nice job! Do you like Tommy Emmanuel by any chance? Cause it seems like there maybe some influence there. And if not, you should check it him out and his version of this song. Keep up the great work :D

[imranino]

Yea i though it was obvious this is pretty much a rinse of his version (esp the bridge)... I just saw him last night he was amazing!

[chubacabraa]

what is the chord progression for your arrangement?

is the capo on the fifth or sixth fret?

[imranino]

(danm took me a while to answer) the capo's on the 5th fret so i'm in Dm but here's the chords as if there were no capo:

Dm F G Bb

Dm F A7

Dm F G Bb

Dm A7 Dm A7
