House of the Rising Sun

 AmCDFAmCE
There is a house in New Or-leans, They call the Rising Sun
 AmCDFAmEAm
And it's been the ruin of many a po' girl, And me, Oh God, I'm one.

 AmCDFAmCE
My mother was a tailor , She sewed my new blue jeans
 AmCDFAmEAm
My sweetheart was a gambler lord, down in New Orleans.
. . .
 AmCDFAmCE
Now the only thing a gambler needs, Is a suitcase and a trunk
 AmCDFAmEAm
And the only time he's satis-fied, Is when he's on a drunk.
. . .
 AmCDFAmCE
He fills his glass up to the brim, And he'll pass the cards a-round
 AmCDFAmEAm
And the only pleasure he gets outa life, Is ramblin from town to town.
. . .
 AmCDFAmCE
Go tell my baby sister, , Not to do what I have done
 AmCDFAmEAm
But to shun that house in New Or-leans, They call the Rising Sun.
. . .
 AmCDFAmCE
Well it's one foot on the platform, . . .and the other foot on the train
 AmCDFAmEAm
I'm goin' back to New Or-leans, to wear that ball and chain
. . .
 AmCDFAmCE
Well I'm goin' back to New Or-leans, my race is almost run
 AmCDFAmEAm
I'm goin' back to end my life, down in the Rising Sun
. . .
 AmCDFAmCE
There is a house in New Or-leans, they call the Rising Sun
 AmCDFAmEAm
And it's been the ruin of many a po' girl, and me, Oh God, I'm one.
