These might not be Waylon's lyrics,but as long as you have
the tab,I think it's fine.

Verse 1:  
  5   -6 -7  7    8  -8 -6  -6  
There is a house in New Orleans 
 -10  -10 -10  9  8   8 
They call the Rising Sun. 
-10 -10   -10  -7   7   8 -8-6 -6 -6   -6 
And it's been the ruin of many a poor girl 
 -6  -6  -6 6#5  6   -6 
And God, I know I'm one.

-10 -10 -10 -10   9    7   -8-6 -6  -6  7   -6  -6   -6  6#5 6   -6 
And the   o nly time he'll be   sa tisfied, is when he's all a drunk.
