House Of The Rising Sun Easy Guitar

**Chords:**
Am C D F Am E

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

Am                      C
My mother was a tailor
         D                  F
She sewed my new blue jeans
      Am                  E
My father was a gamblin' man
       Am              E       Am
Down in New Orleans

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

Am                     C
Oh, mother, tell your children
         D                   F
Not to do what I have done
      Am                  E
Spend your lives in sin and misery
       Am             E      Am
In the House of the Rising Sun

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

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