There is a house in New Orleans
      Am       C      E
They call the "Rising Sun"
         Am       C       D           F
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
    Am     E          Am  C  D  F  Am  E  Am  E
And God, I know, I'm one

Down in New Orleans.

Now the only thing a gambler needs
     Am       C     E
Is a suitcase and a trunk
        Am   C     D         F
And the only time, he's satisfied,
   Am        E    Am  C  D  F  Am  E  Am  E
Is when he's on a drunk

O, mother, tell your children
       Am      C      E
Not to do what I have done
Am         C        D           F

In the House of Rising Sun

I'm going back to New Orleans

To wear that ball and chain
