HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN - Danie Geimer
Tabbed by: alexmcnamee61
So Danie Geimer did a cover of this for her X Factor audition. I am not a fan of the show, though stumbled
across this on YouTube. Much better than I thought it would be.
Tuning: EADGBE
Capo on 3, though doesn't sound too off being on 2.
On places with an E*, it means you can either play regular E or E7. E7 sounds better following the E, though
I think two E chords are what's played. Notes relative to capo
(EDIT: Just before she sings, there's a quiet little arpeggio type thing)
