      Am   C        D             F
There is a house in New Orleans
      Am       C      E    E
They call the Rising Sun
         Am       C       D         F
And It's been the ruin of many poor boys
    Am     E         Am    C  D  F  Am  E  Am  E
And God, I know, I'm one

   Am     C     D       F
My mother was a tailor
    Am       C        E     E
She sewed my new blue jeans
   Am     C     D        F
My father was a gambling man
Am      E      Am     C  D  F  Am  E  Am  E
Down in New Orleans

        Am   C        D       F
And the only things a gambler needs
     Am       C     E      E
Is a suitcase and a trunk
        Am   C       D       F
And the only time he is satisfied
   Am         E    Am     C  D  F  Am  E  Am  E
Is when he's all a-drunk

   Am       C            D          F
So mothers,    tell your children
       Am      C      E       E
Not to do what I have done
 Am        C       D           F
Spend your life in sin and misery
       Am          E       Am      C  D  F  Am  E  Am  E
In the house of the Rising Sun

     Am      C           D         F
I've got one foot on the platform
    Am         C      E      E
The other foot on the train
    Am    C       D      F
I'm going back to New Orleans
   Am       E         Am     C  D  F  Am  E  Am  E
To wear the ball and chain

      Am   C        D             F
There is a house in New Orleans
     Am       C      E    E
They call the Rising Sun
         Am       C       D         F
And It's been the ruin of many poor boys
    Am     E         Am    C  D  F  Am  E  Am  E  Am
And God, I know, I'm one
