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

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

Interlude: C C D D F F Am Am E E Am Am E E

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

Interlude: C C D D F F Am Am E E Am Am E E

Am Am C C D D F F
Oh, Mother, tell your children
Am Am C C E E E E
Not to do what I have done.
Am Am C C D D F F
Spend your lives in sin and misery
Am Am E E Am Am
In the house of the risin' sun.

Interlude: C C D D F F Am Am E E Am Am E E

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

Interlude: C C D D F F Am Am E E Am Am E E

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

By the fingerpicking, the E chords should be E7, but taking that into account, this is the best one I've found! Sounds excellent!
