House Of The Rising Sun

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 girls
    Am      E     Am     E7
And god, I know I'm one

Am        C        D     F
My mother was a tailor.
Am        C       E7
She sowed my new blue jeans.
      Am           C        D       F
My sweetheart he was a gamblin' man
    Am      E     Am     E7
Down in New Orleans

Am        C        D     F
Oh mother tell my baby sister
Am        C       E7
Not to do what I have done
      Am           C        D       F
But shun that house in New Orleans
    Am      E     Am     E7
They call the rising sun

Am        C        D     F
With one foot on the platform
Am        C       E7
The other's on the train
      Am           C        D       F
I'm going back to New Orleans
    Am      E     Am     E7
To wear that ball and chain
