House of the rising sun

       Am C D F Am E Am E 
       Am C D F 
       There is a house in New Orleans 
       Am C E 
       They call the rising sun 
       Am C D F 
       And it's been the ruin of many of poor boys 
       Am E Am C D F Am E Am E 
       And god I know I'm one 

       Am C D F 
       My mother was a tailor 
       Am C E E7 
       Sawed my new blue jeans 
       Am C D F 
       My father was a gamblin' man 
       Am E Am C D F Am E Am E 
       Down in New Orleans 

       Am C D F 
       Well the only thing that the gamblers need 
       Am C E E7 
       Is a suitcase and a trunk 
       Am C D F 
       And the only time when he's satisfied 
       Am E Am C D F Am E Am E 
       Is when he's out and drunk 

       Am C D F 
       Oh! mother tell your children 
       Am C E 
       Not to do what I have done 
       Am C D F 
       Spend your life sincere in misery 
       Am E Am C D F Am E Am E 
       In the house of the rising sun 

       Am C D F 
       I got one foot on the platform 
       Am C E E7 
       The other on the train 
       Am C D F 
       I'm going back to New Orleans 
       Am E Am C D F Am E Am E Am 
       To ware the ball and chain
