Making progress on House of the Rising Sun

Not sure if this is rock or not, but I'm putting it here. A few mistakes and I'm not at finger picking or speed stages yet but it's coming along. I was feeling camera shy, hence the mask.
Nice! Just a small thing. When finger picking try to use all your fingers and not just your thumb. Believe it or not, it's actually easier to finger lick like that in the long run

I'm actually working up to using my fingers. I'm forcusing on getting the chord changes and the feel of the song down. Once I can change chords quick enough then I'll start finger picking. In the short run, I can play something!!!!!

Sounding good girl ! Ids is spot on with the finger picking, but I see you're working your way up to that.
When I learned this, it was actually easier for me to play it with a pick, so kudos to you for going the fingerpicking route !!!

I've always loved the sound of finger picking. But I might give the pick a shot just until I get the chords down.
