Verse 1 & 6:   [ Am ] There is a [ C ] house in [ D ] New Orleans,

[ F ] They [ Am ] call the [ C ] Rising [ E ] Sun. [ E ]

And its [ Am ] been the [ C ] ruin of [ D ] many a poor [ F ] boy,

And [ Am ] God, I [ E ] know, I'm [ Am ] one.

My mother was a tailor, She sewed those new blue jeans.
My father is a gambling man, Down in New Orleans.

Now the only life a gambler knows, Is a suitcase and a trunk.
And the only time when he is satisfied, Is when he's stone drunk.

Oh mothers, tell your children, Not to do what I have done.
Don't spend your lives in sin and misery, In the House of the Rising Sun.

With one foot on the platform, The other on the train.
I'm going back to New Orleans, To wear that ball and chain.
