House of the rising sun
Traditional
There
Dm
is a
F
house in
G
New
Bb
Orleans they
Dm
call the
F
Rising
A7
Sun
A7/E
and its
Dm
been the
F
ruin of
G
many poor
Bb
girl, and
Dm
me, oh
A7
God, for
Dm
one.
If I had listened to what my mother said,
I'd hve been at home today,
But I was young and folish, oh God,
Let a rambler lead me astray.
Go tell my baby sister,
Don't do what I have done
But shun that house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
My race is almost run,
I'm goin' back to spend my life
Beneath that Rising Sun
