THe wife bought me a Gibson Les Paul in the eighties My mate showed me this exact song, The way the cords move around makes this a very easy to play, and yes I played the F cord the same way On other tunes I played the A cord the same was using two fingers as well,
Hey!!! I’m 84 years old and I love playing this song. Thanks for your great instructions. I bought a new Zager acoustic guitar and it sounds great on it.
Hey guys, is there any room for another member of the World Touring Band? My resume includes being 81 years old, playing guitar 7-8 months, still being a poor guitarist with total inability to play an "F" chord, owning a Yamaha FG730 and a Fender Squire Affinity, both of which I will never be any good at. I'm available to travel, polish your guitars, change strings and laugh like hell at myself.
I don't teach guitar but instead I teach martial arts. I'd have to say from teacher to teacher, you are one heck of a great teacher! You break things down better than I've seen from any guitar teacher! Thanks so much for sharing!
I am 75 and an accomplished pianist but am learning guitar. Strings are harder than keys by the way. But...what a great instructor you are. I know I can do this. If I lived closer to you, I would want direct lessons. Your graphics are so appreciated as well. Thanks loads!
Im an 18 year old with 0 rythem, but always wanted to learn the guitar. Im sitting with a pen and paper writing down the cords to practice during quarantine
Good luck to both of you! I have been playing guitar for more than a year and it has become my purpose in life. Be sure to take your time and enjoy it. Sincerely, a lefty.
I have to say, you do the BEST teaching on RUclips...I commented a while back that I put the guitar down 30 years ago. I had to raise the 2 guys and really didn't have time anymore, so you can say that I am a few years older than you. I went out about 7 months ago and coughed up 800.00 for a good guitar, you have me going again, the only problem is my motor skills have slowed down tremendously. Thanks for getting me back...great job!!
I am a Japaneae.asometimes I find that Male voice is hard to hear what they are saying. Your English is so clear and not too firsr for people who grow up with different language. the tone of your voice is perfect. The way you teach is treasure!! Thank you for the tutorial videos
I suggest to you sir, without trying to be snarky, bring up The Animals playing this song on yt. Please pay attention to what they do at the end of each verse. They end the verse then play, without vocals, the chords of the verse. After this instrumental part is completed they then do the next verse with vocals, followed by another verse of no vocals. So vocal, no vocal, vocal, no vocal, etc til the end of the song. The Animals doing House of the Rising Sun from some show in the 60s. On yt. RUclips.
I'm pretty new to guitar, found an easy song and learned it. I thought I'd find a harder one to set my sights on and this seemed like the one. Thank you so much for putting so much detail into this lesson. It means a lot. Thank you
i'm just under 3 months playing on guitar, i just learn to play this whole thing in half an hour, thanks for being so definitive & detailed, i kept saying this guys awesome, just cause you made so easy for me to figure it out! Thanks dude!
CH.A.O.S TV Hi Cherise! What a small world! No, this comment was written by me. I have been playing the guitar, but Tierza likes to play the ukulele. She posted a few videos. Her channel name is: JadeT if you want to check it out 😉
CH.A.O.S TV You’re so welcome! She said the same thing about you when she watched your videos, because you are so talented, too!!! Tell your family hello for us 👋🏼:)
I am 56, and playing guitar has always been " something I had to do one day". I live in the NW of Argentina and we use different chord nominations. I coukd learn both, I coukd also become used to the chords quicky. I mainly play folk music from Argentina but would also love to play the greatest international hits. I just have started few months ago. I am happy with the results...
Such a great tutorial. I don’t know where you learned how to tech but you learned it well. First a short and simple explanation how it’s play than the chord than the order of those after all that you showed the different play styles.
I'm 13, and I'm using this as one's of my first term assessments in college. I think it's great. This guy is one of the best guitar teachers on RUclips. 😊❤🎉
Howdy. I've loved this piece since it was new and I was a wee bairn in short trousers. I always thought it was finger picking; this is amazing. Am 68 and recently started taking lessons again, but seriously this time, retired and kids are gone so now I can concentrate. Yamaha acoustic and Gretch electric. I'm gonna kill it with your assist. Rock On.
Hi!! I just picked up my guitar again after 30+ years of not playing!! 68 here, too, and having issues with my dexterity! And my wrist!! Love David's style of teaching, but not sure if he's putting any more videos out!! I'll keep at it even tho I sound pretty bad 🤣
Thank You!!! Thank You!!! With Your explanation it is so easier. I enjoyed Your lesson and I started believing " I can do it!". My grand daughter promised me to buy me a leather jacket with chains when I learn playing guitar. Now I know I will have it... the jacket of course. Because I already have my lovely guitar. Thank You again.
David I have learned a lot from your videos. You're a great teacher. Keep up the good work and I thank you with tips in your jar as many people should. Two thumbs up !!!
I love how in-depth this tutorial is. I have watched others on RUclips for this song but they just seemed to gloss over important details (like don't pick the last E when raking, or pick three down then three up ect.). Maybe it is just because they assumed that we already know them? Anyway, it is absolutely helpful when every little detail is covered and variations of the playing style are added. You need to assume everyone is an absolute beginner (because I am) and not assume people already know things. If they do, great, it just means that they can skip that part. Or maybe they will see it from a new perspective. Thank you so much for the details!!!
Oh, and love the on-screen tabs per verse. I started playing guitar on Rocksmith (it is SO awesome), but I thought this song was way to hard to play. With your help is seems possible now (the game does not have the same in-depth detail as your tutorial). Thanks!
THANKS, MAN I LEARNED THIS SONG IN 1965 AND PLAYED IT A LOT ,BUT I HAD FORGOTTEN THE CHORD PATTERN . SINCE I CUT OFF MY FINGERS ON MY RIGHT HAND I HAVEN'T PLAYED MUCH. I'M TRYING TO GET IT BACK YOU GAVE ME JUST WHAT I NEEDED.
As a more senior beginner, thank you very much for explaining exactly the issues i had with this song. Even though it were a few small things and tips i needed, you nailed it. Well done!
i'm still listening this song since my high school days, learning guitar together with my friends and classmates, but then, almost forgotten the chords i've learnt, but song still remain in my mind, thanks for your kindness and the nice & excellent demo, from Philippines.
Thanks for the tutorial you are one of the best ; you have a knack to motivate the beginners by making it sound plain & simple by instilling confidence. Great demonstration & instructions as well. Hope to see more of your superb presentations.
I really like your style of teaching the music on line. It took me quite a while to understand the way you use the different styles of picking. Keep up the good work. I am a senior person and I thank you.
Thanks Dave, i've picked the strings of the guitar a year ago now and didn't like any youtube video until i find your channel, really explicit and helpful tuto that help me a lot to keep learning. Thanks. If I may suggest a cool tune stuck in my mind for a while, The cave - Mumford and son.
a couple weeks ago my dad came up to me and said "this is your first guitar lesson" and tried to teach me a simple chord. I've been kinda messing around with his guitar since then but the other day I just decided to try this song out, give myself a real goal. this video is definitely gonna help
hi! i just found your channel, and this is easily the best tutorial i have come across on youtube. very very easy to understand and learn for a beginner! thank you so much 😊
Absolutely wonderful lesson. I have been trying this song on and off for oh, I don't know 25 years, lol and it was never quite right until I saw this video. Many thanks!
I love how you teach everything with details, explantions, chords etc. My favorite! Can you do a current version of redemption song.k Love your lessons!
I'm back to trying to play guitar again after giving up, frustrated, decades ago. Amazingly, now it seems so much easier - and way more fun- thanks to lessons like this one of yours. Lovely sound. Thanks a ton.
Your lesson on this song is the best I've found. You are equally skilled as teacher and players, whereas many who put up RUclipss are strong in just one of these two...or not so much either. I'm not dissing anyone, but it's hard not to compare, where you shine. Hope you do much more...and make a living doing it, if you so desire. Thank you!
Very helpful as a beginner. I was getting so frustrated.. Not ready to throw in the towel...but definitely shelved playing for the past 2 weeks...thanks for the motivation!!
It’s bad, but really it’s not that bad. You can get the basic chords down after a while. Just keep practicing over and over again while watching TV. Playing the guitar chords is a lot of muscle memory. Slowly it will come to you. Don’t force it. Just do a little bit every day. Make up a few little songs for yourself. And then play around with strength patterns at the same time
I find it easier to use the first knuckle on my index finger to cover the bottom B and E strings, rather than try using the third fleshy pad like he says. Basically a half bar chord.
I have tried a couple of times in my life to take guitar lessons and have not stuck with it or made time but it is still on my bucket list. In my experience I think the F chord should F off.
Did learn once to play this song in some sort of shape. But had forgotten. Looking at your lesson think you have shown me a better way. Brilliant cheers.
Hey, thanks so much for making a song I feared easy to understand. Most online instructors rush it leaving the student feeling overwhelmed and wanting to break their guitar!
I’ve been trying to learn guitar for so long and now that I live on my own with no one I finally found the time and I never though learning music was so easy thank you!
I only recently started learning, this is one of the channels I always go to for tips and inspiration. I like this lesson in particular. From easy to advanced, there's always something to pick up and improve on. For example, as I still struggle with chord progression, I found playing a Dm instead of the D makes it easier to get to the F, and also from C to Dm is a bit easier for me. And it sounds just as good.
Thank you for this. This extremely helpful to on learning this song, especially the strumming and arpeggios. I was wondering if you could give lessons on some Emerson Lake and Palmer songs? In particular Greg Lakes songs, Lucky Man, C’est Vie, Still...You Turn Me On and Watching Over You. It would be so appreciated if you could give lessons on these song. I really like your teaching style.
All these songs by Emerson Lake and Palmer that I mentioned are here on RUclips. The best version of Still... You Turn Me On and Lucky Man was at the California Jam 1974. And C’est Vie and Watching Over You were from their Work Tour In 1977 if that helps. I really appreciate your looking into these songs. All are beautiful and Greg Lake was an exceptional musician and singer. Watching these videos of him is what inspired me to take up acoustic guitar.
played this many years ago while having my own tock band. Your teaching was spot on. I do it with the rake style of the Animals. good to know others will be taught well. Hats off to you. Rock on . we need some CCR too.
«There is a house in New Orlenes» Am C D F «They call the rising sun» Am C E E «Its been the ruin of many a poor boy» Am C D F «And God, I know Im one» Am E Am E
Thanks David - I appreciate your great tutorial. Even us older guys can follow the content. I'll be back to review and practise. I've committed to at least 5 minutes a day, which turns into 30+.
Thanks! I find it enjoyable to show a few different ways to tackle the strumming / fingerpicking / etc, knowing that everyone’s preference & abilities are going to be different.
You’re welcome! Nope, I don’t use electric strings. I typically buy the Elixir brand for whatever reason. Any strings you recommend? It’s definitely not something I’m an expert on! But curious to learn.
magnus skaug actually acoustic guitars are supposed to have steel strings for strumming and sometimes fingerpicking but its easier to fingerpick on a classical guitar since they have nylon strings that are not hard on your fingers when pressing down on the chords
"House Of The Rising Sun" Hit #1 in 1964 as released and performed by British band The Animals. Though they were not the first to perform the song, it is actually from the 18th century.
Maybe because it's not quite the way the Animals play it. The original guitar plays 2 extra notes before strumming each chord. I still gave it a thumbs up tho.

Hey!!! I’m 84 years old and I love playing this song. Thanks for your great instructions. I bought a new Zager acoustic guitar and it sounds great on it.
I'm 66, on the 19th, and just began! When did you start?
I'm 60 and started 3 weeks ago, with a Yamaha FG800....lets make a band ,tour the world and serenate the Lady's ...." The Never Old's"
So cool! I’m 71, just purchased a Zager 900. Love the song and my Zager. If you’re thinking about buying a Zager, you won’t be disappointed.
I got a Yamaha 280 it's amazing and this song is fantastic too!

Samee dude
Good luck to both of you! I have been playing guitar for more than a year and it has become my purpose in life. Be sure to take your time and enjoy it. Sincerely, a lefty.
Quarantine is the best for guitar praktis. :)
I'm 54 and taking back my old guitar to relearn how to play , it's almost like riding a bike ... you never forget .... thank you quarantine ;)
My lovely Dad, do pick up the music. It will make your life colorful. Believe me.

I am a simple human being,
I see an F chord.. I cry!
Come on you need a bit of practice and you can do it
@@danibiyarslanov I’m 78 and learned how. Come on!
Haha I feel ya, what I started doing is make a C shape and move your middle/ring fingers down a string. Doing it as a bar chord always sucked for me.
The dreaded F cord.
why the f chord is easy
I'm pretty new to guitar, found an easy song and learned it. I thought I'd find a harder one to set my sights on and this seemed like the one. Thank you so much for putting so much detail into this lesson. It means a lot. Thank you

Very good teaching for everyone who is studying guitar chords.

Thanks !. “House of the rising sun” , “still loving you” and “Wicked game” are the most gorgeous songs to play on a guitar
You’re welcome! I’ll have to check out those other songs - don’t know one and the other I haven’t heard in years and years.
Absolutely wonderful lesson. I have been trying this song on and off for oh, I don't know 25 years, lol and it was never quite right until I saw this video. Many thanks!
I am retired attempting to learn acoustic guitar player later in life. Your in-depth lesson with this great classic is a big help to me.
Brilliant demonstration. Very easy to follow.
I am in love with this lesson..
This person is total genius. If long retired life I intend to be his student.
Why is he a genius tho?
Watching this at school! Cant wait to get home
Lol, good!
I love how you teach everything with details, explantions, chords etc. My favorite! Can you do a current version of redemption song.k Love your lessons!
I'm back to trying to play guitar again after giving up, frustrated, decades ago. Amazingly, now it seems so much easier - and way more fun- thanks to lessons like this one of yours. Lovely sound. Thanks a ton.
Me too, after a 20 yrs hiatus.
Was good and clear explanation you made for learner and intermediate grade. Love that.
I like the 3 or 4 different strumming suggestions, it allows us to build up to the real thing without being discouraged. Thanks again.
Glad you find this helpful! Strumming is tough, and I do enjoy going through the suggestions to accommodate folks of all skill levels. Thanks again!!
Your lesson on this song is the best I've found. You are equally skilled as teacher and players, whereas many who put up RUclipss are strong in just one of these two...or not so much either. I'm not dissing anyone, but it's hard not to compare, where you shine. Hope you do much more...and make a living doing it, if you so desire. Thank you!
I've never comment on you tube post I'm shy but thank you so much I got this song now again ty
Very helpful as a beginner. I was getting so frustrated.. Not ready to throw in the towel...but definitely shelved playing for the past 2 weeks...thanks for the motivation!!
House of the Rising Sun is my fav song that I've been playing lots ..You have made it more easier to play ..Thanks so much
Animals house of the rising sun chords plucking and strumming is really great indeed! Loved it.
who else is still struggling with the F chord 🙋🏻♀️
me! I can barely do the one here idk how im gonna do the actual bar chord it seems impossible right now
F cords suck, Bar cords are torture. any suggestions on hand stretching exercises that may help?
It’s bad, but really it’s not that bad. You can get the basic chords down after a while. Just keep practicing over and over again while watching TV. Playing the guitar chords is a lot of muscle memory. Slowly it will come to you. Don’t force it. Just do a little bit every day. Make up a few little songs for yourself. And then play around with strength patterns at the same time
I find it easier to use the first knuckle on my index finger to cover the bottom B and E strings, rather than try using the third fleshy pad like he says. Basically a half bar chord.
I have tried a couple of times in my life to take guitar lessons and have not stuck with it or made time but it is still on my bucket list. In my experience I think the F chord should F off.
one of most straight forward videos of this song i've seen many thanks
I’m going to attempt this! You’re very clear in explaining things. Can’t wait to see how it turns out 😄
Did learn once to play this song in some sort of shape. But had forgotten. Looking at your lesson think you have shown me a better way. Brilliant cheers.
Hey, thanks so much for making a song I feared easy to understand. Most online instructors rush it leaving the student feeling overwhelmed and wanting to break their guitar!
Good to have a basic starter to get the chord changes sorted then progressively getting harder with the arpeggios.
perfect tension build up and simple release progression. Genius.
I’ve been trying to learn guitar for so long and now that I live on my own with no one I finally found the time and I never though learning music was so easy thank you!
Hows it going ruben? Still jamming?
Just wanted to say I LOVVE the sound of your guitar..It has such a beautiful crispness to it
Love this song and you made it easy to follow on my guitar.
Dude thank you sooo much this was very helpful and really helped me to understand the correct ways to play this song.
First video I watched...I guess I will learn to play guitar with you. THANKS SO MUCH 😋
Did you learned anything from the video???
I only recently started learning, this is one of the channels I always go to for tips and inspiration. I like this lesson in particular. From easy to advanced, there's always something to pick up and improve on. For example, as I still struggle with chord progression, I found playing a Dm instead of the D makes it easier to get to the F, and also from C to Dm is a bit easier for me. And it sounds just as good.
The tutorial is so clear and great! 👍
Thanks! I had a blast learning this song and am glad this lesson is helpful 👍
This is honestly the most helpful tutorial I’ve watched. Thank you
Thank you for this. This extremely helpful to on learning this song, especially the strumming and arpeggios. I was wondering if you could give lessons on some Emerson Lake and Palmer songs? In particular Greg Lakes songs, Lucky Man, C’est Vie, Still...You Turn Me On and Watching Over You. It would be so appreciated if you could give lessons on these song. I really like your teaching style.
Thanks Becky! I will check out those songs - not sure I know any by name but that band name is definitely one I’ve heard many times. All the best 👍
All these songs by Emerson Lake and Palmer that I mentioned are here on RUclips. The best version of Still... You Turn Me On and Lucky Man was at the California Jam 1974. And C’est Vie and Watching Over You were from their Work Tour In 1977 if that helps. I really appreciate your looking into these songs. All are beautiful and Greg Lake was an exceptional musician and singer. Watching these videos of him is what inspired me to take up acoustic guitar.
played this many years ago while having my own tock band. Your teaching was spot on. I do it with the rake style of the Animals. good to know others will be taught well. Hats off to you. Rock on . we need some CCR too.
I also covered the first 4 string when playing the F, less hand strain.
This is awesome! You explain it so well...
_I really appreciated in the way easy your explain it._

FINALLY a good channel for guitar tutorials!
That F chord really said "F you" to me.
this song is so addicting to play thanks man !!
The most helpful lesson yet, you showed me all I needed to know about playing this song. Nothing was left out, thanks.
When I first heard this song in a video game I absolutely feel in love with the picking style and the changes. :D
New subscriber!
Excellent, thanks. Playing 5 months. Been encouraging, others and thumbs up to everyone. Everyone so helpful
Thanks all.
Thanks David! Great lesson. How about tips for singing and playing at the same time?
Finger picking & singing is MUCH trickier than just strumming. Good work - thanks!
Great Tutorial
Thanks!
You're very very welcome - thanks for the tip!
I love this songs, TY !
Great that you also explained the Strumming Pattern at 5:37, so I can play it Dylan Style.
Most tutorials on RUclips miss that.
Thanks! I find it enjoyable to show a few different ways to tackle the strumming / fingerpicking / etc, knowing that everyone’s preference & abilities are going to be different.
I think this is a great approach, as the average RUclipsr only thinks of and shows HIS approach. Thanks a lot.
Thank you sir
I appreciate your tutorial immensely. THANKS equally to You Tube and You.
Thank you
Maybe you can do

Sugestion : Patience - Gun's N Roses
Best tutorial on this song ever. Thanks man. First song I wanted to start on the guitar.
exactly my toughts but then i realised the F cord is the hardest basic chord to learn so im here after 3 months trying again :D
Thank you very much for your teaching.
BTW, do you use electric guitar strings on your acoustic guitar?
You’re welcome! Nope, I don’t use electric strings. I typically buy the Elixir brand for whatever reason. Any strings you recommend? It’s definitely not something I’m an expert on! But curious to learn.
Typically acoustic guitars have nylon strings (meant for finger style) but some guitars have steel strings and those are more used for strumming style
magnus skaug actually acoustic guitars are supposed to have steel strings for strumming and sometimes fingerpicking but its easier to fingerpick on a classical guitar since they have nylon strings that are not hard on your fingers when pressing down on the chords
This is the best guitar tutorial on you tube .. period!!
"House Of The Rising Sun" Hit #1 in 1964 as released and performed by British band The Animals. Though they were not the first to perform the song, it is actually from the 18th century.
Don't know why people would give this a thumbs down smh, great lesson, keep up the great work. I have subscribed, thank you
Maybe because it's not quite the way the Animals play it. The original guitar plays 2 extra notes before strumming each chord. I still gave it a thumbs up tho.
This is a great, quick, informative video. I also appreciate the paper printouts. You da man
My dad said that this is one of the easier songs so I immediately searched it up.
