Intro: Am C Dm F Am Em Am
[Am] [C] [Dm] [F] There is a house down in New Orleans
[Am] [C] [Em] They call the Risin' Sun
[Am] [C] [Dm] [F]And it's been the ruin of many poor girl
[Am] [Em] [Am] [C] [Dm] [F] [Em]And me, oh God, I'm a-one
[2] My mother was a taylor
She sewed these new blue jeans
My sweetheart was a gambler, Lord
Down in New Orleans
[3] Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk
[4] He fills his glasses up to the brim
And he'll pace the cards around
And the only pleasure he gets out of life
Is ramblin' from town to town
[5] Oh tell my baby sister
Not to do as I have done
But to shun that house in New Orleans
They call the Risin' Sun
[6] Well, it's one foot on the platform
And the other foot on the train
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain
[7] I'm a-goin' back to New Orleans
My race is almost run
I'm goin' back to end my life
Down in the Risin' Sun
8)
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Risin' Sun
It's been the ruin of many poor girl
And me, oh God, Im a-one
