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

My mother was a tailor
Am C E
She sewed my new blue jeans
Am C D F
My father was a gambling man
Am E
Down in New Orleans.
Am C D F Am E Am E
Am C D F
And the only thing a gambler needs
Am C E
Is a suitcase and a trunk.
Am C D F
And the only time he is satisfied
Am E
Is when he’s on a drunk.
Am C D F Am E Am E
Am C D F
So mother tell your children
Am C E
Not to do what I have done
Am C D F
Spend your lives in sin and misery
Am E
In the House of a Rising sun.
Am C D F Am E Am E
Am C D F
Well I’ve got one foot on the platform
Am C E
The other foot on the train.
Am C D F
I’m going back to New Orleans
Am E
To wear that ball and chain.
