ok... for the lyrics of "The house of rising sun" A cover from The animals
youtube link here.... The house of rising sun....




There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one


My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans


Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk


------ organ solo ------


Oh mother tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun


Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain


Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one


Today i also taught u all alot regarding theory...

what is a scale... what is a key...


"Although many musicians confuse key with scale,


a scale is an ordered set of notes typically used in a key,


while the key is the center of gravity, established by particular chord progressions."


wad it all means.....
Scale... is just notes from Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do.... thats all... 8 notes...
Key... is scales.... chords family... accompliments.... everything u need that is needed to play together.....

example.... its not right to play a C scale notes together with G family chords....


they wun fit.... so key denotes a guide to everything...


there... layman term enough ?
lol...


Accidental
what u all need to knw are already shown in below's pic....
Sharp Flat Netural
done... short and sweet....
below is a score with a few sharps.... by looking at this.... we already can tell what key the whole score is... This is what we call a key signature.....



how can we tell....
as we already know.... G key has 1 # at F note....

therfore if we sees only 1 # at the key signature... means it a G key score....


Any idea wad key the score is refering ?

tips.... print out the above table and write from A all the way to G to see which scales has 3 #...

you shd able to do it in 1 try... lol...

With all this... playing the house of rising sun shd be no problem for u already.... enjoy this oldies... its been around since 1933... there's a reason y it can stay so long... learn to enjoy it... lol
Dylan signing off.... cheer....
