Chords
Sounds best if you finger pick the whole song
Am C D F
There is a house in New Orleans
Am C E E
they call the Risin' Sun
Am C D F
and it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
Am E Am
and God, I know I'm one
C D F Am E Am E
Am C D F
My mother was a tailor
Am C E E
she sewed my new blue jeans
Am C D F
my father was a gamblin' man
Am E Am
down in New Orleans
C D F Am E Am E
Am C D F
Now, the only thing a gambler needs
Am C E E
is a suitcase and a trunk
Am C D F
and the only time that he's satisfied
Am E Am
is when he's on a drunk
C D F Am E Am E
Am C D F
Oh, Mother, tell your children
Am C E E
not to do what I have done
Am C D F
spend your lives in sin and misery
Am E Am
in the house of the Risin' Sun
C D F Am E Am E
Am C D F
Well, I've got one foot on the platform
Am C E E
the other foot on the train
Am C D F
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
Am E Am
to wear that ball and chain
C D F Am E Am E
Am C D F
Well, there is a house in New Orleans
Am C E E
they call the Risin' Sun
Am C D F
and it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
Am E Am
and God, I know I'm one
C D F Am E Am D Am D Am D - fade out
