LYRIC

-3 -3 -4 4 -5 -5 -3 -3

There is a house in New Orleans

-7 7 -7 7 6 -5

They call the Rising Sun

6 -7 7 -4 4 -5 -5 -3 -3 4

And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy

-3 3 -3 <3 2 <3 -3

And God I know I’m one


-7 7 -7 7 5 -5 -3 4

My mother was a tailor

-7 7 -7 7 6 -5

She sewed my new bluejeans

-7 7 -7 7 5 -5 -3 4

My father was a gamblin’ man

-3 3 -3 <3 2 <3 -3

Down in New Orleans


-7 7 -7 7 5 -5 -3 4

Now the only thing a gambler needs

-7 -7 7 -7 7 6 -5

Is a suitcase and trunk

-7 7 -7 7 5 -5 -3 4

And the only time he’s satisfied

-3 3 -3 <3 2 <3 -3

Is when he’s on a drunk


—— organ solo ——


-3 -3 -3 -5 -5 -5 -3

Oh mother tell your children

-7 7 -7 7 6 -5

Not to do what I have done

-7 7 -7 7 5 -5 -3 4

Spend your lives in sin and misery

-3 3 -3 <3 2 <3 -3

In the House of the Rising Sun


-7 7 -7 7 5 -5 -3 4

Well, I got one foot on the platform

-7 7 -7 7 6 -5

The other foot on the train

-7 7 -7 7 5 -5 -3 4

I’m goin’ back to New Orleans

-3 3 -3 <3 2 <3 -3

To wear that ball and chain


-7 7 -7 7 5 -5 -3 4

There is a house in New Orleans

-7 7 -7 7 6 -5

They call the Rising Sun

-7 7 -7 7 5 -5 5 -3 4

And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy

-3 3 -3 <3 2 <3 -3

And God I know I’m one
