The House of the Rising Sun
 As performed by The Animals

 I've seen many submitions of this song with 
 the correct chords. But the arpeggio is not 
 so good on all of them. Some are almost OK,
 some are bad and some are just  downright 
 bizarre.
 But THIS verson is very close to the autentic 
 sound. Actually, I don't think it's possible
 to get any closer.

 * - Let your plectrum slide down the strings on these
     notes. If you didn't get that, mail me and I'll try
     to explain it another way.
