Joan Baez - House Of The Rising Sun Chords

[Intro]

Dm F A7 Dm  A7  Dm  A7

[Verse 1]
Dm             F         A7    Dm
    There is a house in New Orleans,
     Bb       D7     A7
They call the Rising Sun.
         Dm       F       A7          Dm
And it's been the ruin of many a poor girl,
    Bdim   A7       Dm   A7  Dm  A7
And me, oh God, for one.

[Verse 2]
   Dm    F           A7             Dm 
If I had listened to what my mother said,
         Bb      D7     A7   
I'd have been at home today,
    Bb    D7        A7           Dm
But I was young and foolish, oh, God,
      Bdim    A7        Dm   A7  Dm  A7
Let a rambler lead me astray.

[Verse 3]
   Dm      F    A7            Dm 
Go tell my baby sister,
      Bb      D7     A7
Don't do what I have done,
     Dm      F        A7    Dm
But shun the house in New Orleans,
     Bdim     A7     Dm   A7  Dm  A7
They call the Rising Sun.

[Verse 4]
    Dm    F       A7     Dm 
I'm going back to New Orleans,
   Bb      D7     A7
My race is almost run,
    Dm    F       A7       Dm
I'm going back to spend my life
  Bdim       A7     Dm   
Beneath that Rising Sun.
