5 -6 -7 7 8 -8 -6 -6
There is a house in New Orleans,
-10 -10 -10 9 8 8
They call the Rising Sun.
-10 -10 -10 -7 7 8 -8-6 -6 -6 -6
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy,
-6 -6 -6 6 5 6 -6
And God, I know I'm one.
-10 10 -10 9 7 -8 -6
My mother was a tailor,
-10 -10 9 8 8
Sewed my new blue jeans.
-10 -10 -10 9 7 -8 -6 -6 -67
My fa-ther was a gam--bl-in' man,
-6 -6 6 5 6 -6
Down in New Orleans.
-10 -10 -10 -10 9 7 -8 -6 -6
Now the onl--y thing a gambler needs,
-10 -10 -10 -10 9 8 8
Is a suitcase and a trunk,
-10 -10 -10 -10 9 7 -8-6
And the o-nly time he'll be,
-6 -6 7 -6 -6 -6 6 5 6 -6
Sa-tisfied, is when he's a-ll a drunk.
-5 -6 -7 7 8 -8 -6
Oh mother tell your children,
-6 -10 -10 -10 9 8 8
Not to do what I have done.
10 -7 7 8 -8 -6 -6-6-6
Spend your lives in sin and misery,
-6 -6 -6 -6 6 5 6 -6
In the house of the rising sun.
{Word's} -10 -10 -10 9 7 -8 -6
Well I've got one foot on the platform.
-10 -10 -10 9 8 8
The other foot on the train.
-10 -10 -10 9 7 -8 -6 -6 7
I'm go--in' back to New Orleans,
7 -6 -6 6 5 6 -6
To wear that ba-ll and chain.
-10 -10 -10 -10 9 7 -8 -6 -6
Well there is a house in New Orleans,
-10 -10 -10 9 8 8
They call the Rising Sun.
-10 -10 -10 -10 9 7 -8-6 -6 -6 7
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy,
-6 -6 -6 6 5 6 -6
And God, I kn-ow I'm one.
