       Gm | D Dadd9+ | Gm Gm7 | D Dadd9+

      Gm   Bb       C            D#
There is a house in New Orleans,
     Gm       Bb     D
They call the Rising Sun.
Dadd9+   Gm       Bb      C             D#
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy,
     Gm     D    Dadd9+ Gm
And, God, I know I’m one.

   Gm     Bb    C       D#7
My mother was a tailor,
    Gm       Bb       D7
She sewed my new blue jeans.
   Gm     Bb    C        D#
My father was a gambling man
Gm      D7    Gm
Down in New Orleans.

Instrumental: :6/8: Gm | Bb | C | D#
              Gm | D7 | Gm | D7

         Gm   Bb      C       D#7
Now, the only thing a gambler needs
     Gm       Bb    D7
Is a suitcase and a trunk.
        Gm   Bb      C        D#
And the only time he’s satisfied
   Gm        D7      Gm
Is when he’s on a drunk.

    Gm    Bb              C    D#7
Oh, mother, tell your children
       Gm      Bb     D7
Not to do what I have done.
Gm         Bb       C              D#7
Spend your lives in sin and misery
       Gm           D7       Gm
In the house of the Rising Sun.

Instrumental: :6/8: Gm | Bb | C | D#

               Gm       Bb        C      D#7
Well, I’ve got one foot on the platform,
    Gm         Bb        D7
The other foot on the train.
    Gm    Bb      C           D#7
I’m going back to New Orleans
   Gm        D7          Gm
To wear that ball and chain.

And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy,

And, God, I know I’m one.
