                        Intro:  Am C D F Am E Am E
                         Am   C        D      F
                   There is a house in New Orleans,
                        Am       C      E7    E7
                   They call the Rising Sun
                            Am       C       D         F
                   And It's been the ruin of many poor boys
                       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     E7
                   She sewed my new blue jeans
                      Am     C     D        F
                   My father was a gambling man
                   Am      E7      Am     C D F Am E7 Am E7
                   Down in New Orleans
                           Am   C        D       F
                   And the only things a gambler needs
                        Am       C     E7      E7
                   Is a suitcase and a trunk
                           Am   C       D       F
                   And the only time he is satisfied
                      Am         E7    Am     C D F Am E7 Am E7
                   Is when he's all a-drunk
                      Am       C            D          F 
                   So mothers,    tell your children
                          Am      C      E7       E7
                   Not to do what I have done
                    Am        C       D           F
                   Spend your life in sin and misery
                          Am          E7       F      C D F Am E7 Am E7
                   In the house of the Rising Sun
                        Am      C           D         F
                   I've got one foot on the platform
                       Am         C      E7      E7
                   The other foot on the train
                       Am    C       D      F
                   I'm going back to New Orleans
                      Am       C         Am     C D F Am E7 Am E7
                   To wear the ball and chain
                          
                         Am   C        D             F
                   There is a house in New Orleans,
                        Am       C      E7    E7
                   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 E7 Am E7 Am
                   And God, I know, I'm one
    changed E to E7
