      Dm   F        G            Bb
There is a house in New Orleans,
     Dm       F      A
They call the Rising Sun.
         Dm       F       G             Bb
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy,
     Dm     A           Dm
And, God, I know I’m one.

   Dm     F     G       Bb7
My mother was a tailor,
    Dm       F        A7
She sewed my new blue jeans.
   Dm     F     G        Bb
My father was a gambling man
Dm      A7    Dm
Down in New Orleans.

              Dm | A7 | Dm | A7

         Dm   F       G       Bb7
Now, the only thing a gambler needs
     Dm       F     A7
Is a suitcase and a trunk.
        Dm   F       G        Bb
And the only time he’s satisfied
   Dm        A7      Dm
Is when he’s on a drunk.

    Dm    F               G    Bb7
Oh, mother, tell your children
       Dm      F      A7
Not to do what I have done.
Dm         F        G              Bb7
Spend your lives in sin and misery
       Dm           A7       Dm
In the house of the Rising Sun.

Instrumental: :6/8: Dm | F | G | Bb
              Dm | A7 | Dm | A7

               Dm       F         G      Bb7
Well, I’ve got one foot on the platform,
    Dm         F         A7
The other foot on the train.
    Dm    F       G           Bb7
I’m going back to New Orleans
   Dm        A7          Dm
To wear that ball and chain.
