There is a house in New Or-leans
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
And God I know I'm one
C D F Am E7 Am E7

My mother was a tailor
Am C E7 E7
She sewed my new blue jeans
Am C D F
My father was a gambling man
Am E7 Am
Down in New Or-leans
C D F Am E7 Am E7
Am C D F
Now the only thing a gambler needs
Am C E7
Is a suitcase and a trunk
Am C D F
And the only time he's satis-fied
Am E7 Am
Is when he's all a-drunk
C D F Am E7 Am E7
Am C D F
Oh mother tell your chil-dren
Am C E7
Not to do what I have done
Am C D F
Spend your lives in sin and mise-ry
Am E7 Am
In the house of the Rising Sun
C D F Am E7 Am E7
Am C D F
Well I got one foot on the platform
Am C E7
And the other foot on the train
Am C D F
I'm going back to New Or-leans
Am E7 Am
To wear that ball and chain
C D F Am E7 Am E7
Am C D F
There is a house in New Or-leans
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
And God I know I'm one
