Dm F A7 Dm F A7 A Dm

Verse 1
           F       A7       Dm
There is a house in New Orleans
     Bb       F      A7
They call the Rising Sun
         Dm       F       A7           Dm
And it's been the ruin of many a poor girl
     Ddim  A7       Dm  A Dm A7
And me, oh God, for one

Verse 2
   Dm       F        A7             Dm
If I had listened to what my mother said
    Bb           F      A7
I'd have been at home today
    Dm    F         A7          Dm
But I was young and foolish, oh God
              A7        Dm   A7 Dm A7
Let a rambler lead me astray

Verse 3
   Dm      F    A7
Go tell my baby sister
      Bb      F      A7
Don't do what I have done
    Dm        F       A7        Dm
But shun that house in New Orleans
Ddim          A7     Dm  A7 Dm A7
They call the Rising Sun

Verse 4
    Dm    F       A7    Dm
I'm going back to New Orleans
   Bb      F       A7
My race is almost run
    Dm    F       A7       Dm
I'm going back to spend my life
             A7     Dm
Beneath that Rising Sun
