Am         C        D   F
There is a house in New Orleans
     Am       C      E       
 They call the Rising Sun
Am         C        D   F
And it's been the ruin of many a poor girl
    Am       C         E   
And me, oh Lord is one

Am         C        D   F
Go tell my baby sister
    Am       C         E   
Never do what I have done
Am         C        D   F
To shun that house in New Orleans
     Am       C     E   
They call the Rising Sun
 Am         C        D   F
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
    Am       C         E   
My race is almost run
Am         C        D   F
I'm goin' back to spend my life
    Am       C         E   
Beneath that Rising Sun
