House Of The Rising Sun

Am C D F Am E7 Am E7

      Am   C        D        F
There is a house in New Orleans 
     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 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
She sewed my new bluejeans 
   Am     C     D        F
My father was a gamblin' man 
Am      E7    Am C D F Am E7 Am E7
Down in New Orleans 

        Am   C       D       F
Now the only thing a gambler needs 
     Am       C   E7
Is a suitcase and trunk 
        Am   C    D         F
And the only time he's satisfied 
   Am        E7   Am C D F Am E7 Am E7
Is when he's on a drunk 

   Am   C           D      F
Oh mother tell your children 
       Am      C      E7
Not to do what I have done 
Am         C        D           F
Spend your lives in sin and misery 
       Am           E7     Am C D F Am E7 Am E7
In the House of the Rising Sun 

        Am      C           D      F
Well, I got one foot on the platform 
    Am         C      E7
The other foot on the train 
    Am    C       D     F
I'm goin' back to New Orleans 
   Am        E7       Am C D F Am E7 Am E7
To wear that ball and chain 

            Am   C        D          F
Well, there is a house in New Orleans 
     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 C D F Am E7 Am 
And God I know I'm one 

    Am               C              D              F
