The outro of “The House of the Rising Sun” is distinct from everything that we’ve already played. It has one new chord and uses a different strumming pattern, and in this lesson we will show you how to play these new parts so you can finish the song just like the recording does.

You’ll be playing:

  • Am, C, D, F, E, F7/C and Dm chords
  • Alternate strumming
  • Accented strumming
  • Eighth note strumming
