There is a house in New Orleans
[Am] [C] [E7]
They call the Rising Sun
[Am] [C] [D] [F]
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
[Am] [E7] [Am] [C] [D] [F] [Am] [E7] [Am] [E7]
And God I know I'm one
[Am] [C] [D] [F]
My mother was a tailor
[Am] [C] [E7]
She sewed my new bluejeans
[Am] [C] [D] [F]
My father was a gamblin' man
[Am] [E7] [Am] [C] [D] [F] [Am] [E7] [Am] [E7]
Down in New Orleans
[Am] [C] [D] [F]
Now the only thing a gambler needs
[Am] [C] [E7]
Is a suitcase and trunk
[Am] [C] [D] [F]
And the only time he's satisfied
[Am] [E7] [Am] [C] [D] [F] [Am] [E7] [Am] [E7]
Is when he's on a drunk
[Am] [C] [D] [F]
Oh mother tell your children
[Am] [C] [E7]
Not to do what I have done
[Am] [C] [D] [F]
Spend your lives in sin and misery
[Am] [E7] [Am] [C] [D] [F] [Am] [E7] [Am] [E7]
In the House of the Rising Sun
[Am] [C] [D] [F]
Well, I got one foot on the platform
[Am] [C] [E7]
The other foot on the train
[Am] [C] [D] [F]
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
[Am] [E7] [Am] [C] [D] [F] [Am] [E7] [Am] [E7]
To wear that ball and chain
[Am] [C] [D] [F]
Well, there is a house in New Orleans
[Am] [C] [E7]
They call the Rising Sun
[Am] [C] [D] [F]
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
