There [Am] is a [C] house in [Dm] New Or- [F] leans
They [Am] call the [C] Rising [E] Sun [E7]
And it's [Am] been the [C] ruin of [Dm] many a poor [F] boy
And [Am] God I [E] know I'm [Am] one [E7]
My [Am] mother [C] was a [Dm] tailor [F]
She [Am] sewed my [C] new blue [E] jeans [E7]
My [Am] father [C] was a [Dm] gamblin' [F] man
[Am] Down in [E] New Or- [Am] leans [E7]
Now the [Am] only [C] thing a [Dm] gambler [F] needs
Is a [Am] suitcase [C] and a [E] trunk [E7]
And the [Am] only [C] time he's [Dm] satis- [F] fied
Is [Am] when he's [E] on a [Am] drunk [E7]
Oh [Am] mother [C] tell your [Dm] children [F]
Not to[Am] do what [C] I have [E] done [E7]
[Am] Spend your [C] lives in [Dm] sin and [F] misery
In the [Am] House of the [E] Rising [Am] Sun [E7]
Well, I got [Am] one foot [C] on the [Dm] plat- [F] form
The [Am] other foot [C] on the [E] train [E7]
I'm [Am] goin' [C] back to [Dm] New Or- [F] leans
To [Am] wear that [E] ball and [Am] chain [E7]
Well, there [Am] is a [C] house in [Dm] New Or- [F] leans
They [Am] call the [C] Rising [E] Sun [E7]
And it's [Am] been the [C] ruin of [Dm] many a poor [F] boy
And [Am] God I [E] know I'm [Am] one [E7]
