 Intro: A minorAm C majorC D MajorD FF A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm E MajorE

   A minorAm  C majorC    D MajorD       FF
There is a house in New Orleans,
   A minorAm    C majorC   E MajorE  E MajorE
They call the Rising Sun
     A minorAm    C majorC    D MajorD     FF
And It's been the ruin of many poor boys
  A minorAm   E MajorE     A minorAm  C majorC D MajorD FF A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm E MajorE
And God, I know, I'm one

  A minorAm   C majorC   D MajorD    FF
My mother was a tailor
  A minorAm    C majorC    E MajorE   E MajorE
She sewed my new blue jeans
  A minorAm   C majorC   D MajorD    FF
My father was a gambling man
A minorAm   E MajorE   A minorAm   C majorC D MajorD FF A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm E MajorE
Down in New Orleans

    A minorAm  C majorC    D MajorD    FF
And the only things a gambler needs
   A minorAm    C majorC   E MajorE   E MajorE
Is a suitcase and a trunk
    A minorAm  C majorC    D MajorD    FF
And the only time he is satisfied
  A minorAm     E MajorE  A minorAm   C majorC D MajorD FF A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm E MajorE
Is when he's all a-drunk

--Solo do órgão--
Duração de uma estrofe.
Aqui pode-se improvisar com escala pentatonica de Lá Menor (A minorAm).

  A minorAm    C majorC      D MajorD     FF
So mothers,  tell your children
    A minorAm   C majorC   E MajorE    E MajorE
Not to do what I have done
 A minorAm    C majorC    D MajorD      FF
Spend your life in sin and misery
    A minorAm     E MajorE    A minorAm   C majorC D MajorD FF A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm E MajorE
In the house of the Rising Sun

   A minorAm   C majorC      D MajorD     FF
I've got one foot on the platform
  A minorAm     C majorC   E MajorE   E MajorE
The other foot on the train
  A minorAm  C majorC    D MajorD   FF
I'm going back to New Orleans
  A minorAm    E MajorE     A minorAm   C majorC D MajorD FF A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm E MajorE
To wear the ball and chain


   A minorAm  C majorC    D MajorD       FF
There is a house in New Orleans,
   A minorAm    C majorC   E MajorE  E MajorE
They call the Rising Sun
     A minorAm    C majorC    D MajorD     FF
And It's been the ruin of many poor boys
  A minorAm   E MajorE     A minorAm  C majorC D MajorD FF A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm E MajorE A minorAm
