Am, C, D, F, Am, E7, Am, E7

Am         C        D     F
There is a house in New Orleans
Am        C   Em    Em
They call the Rising Sun
Am                C       D           F
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy

    Am    E7       Am
And God I know I'm one
   Am     C     D     F
My mother was a tailor
Am        C      E7   E7
She sewed my new bluejeans
Am        C     D        F
My father was a gamblin' man

Am      E7  Am     E7
Down in New Orleans
    Am       C       D       F
Now the only thing a gambler needs
    Am       E7   Am    E7
Is a suitcase and trunk
       Am    C    D    F
And the only time he's satisfied
   Am        E7   Am   E7
Is when he's on a drunk

   Am     C          D       F
Oh mother tell your children
       Am     C       E7  E7
Not to do what I have done
Am         C        D      F
Spend your lives in sin and misery
        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    F       D   F
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
   Am        E7        E7
To wear that ball and chain


      Am         C        D   F
Well, there is a house in New Orleans
     Am       E7     Am  E7
They call the Rising Sun
    Am            C       D          F
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
    Am    E7      Am
And God I know I'm one
