corrections welcome.
INTRO: Am
Am C D F
There is a house down in New Orleans
Am C E E7
They call the Rising Sun
Am C D F
It's been the ruin for many poor boy
C Em Am
And me oh God, I'm one
C D F
My mother was a tailor
Am C E E7
She sewed these old blue jeans

Down in New Orleans

Not to do the things I've done
Am C D F
But shun that house down in New Orleans
C E Am
They call the Rising Sun

They call the Rising Sun

And me oh God, I'm one

Bob Dylan tune.

-sandie | 4/24/2005 | i think the animals wrote that tune
-bluesman479 | 7/30/2005 | No way, man. Bob Dylan wrote the song. I don't understand why anybody thinks that the
Animals wrote it. They just covered it. In
fact, Bob Dylan wrote it as "the ruin of many poor girl", in the first verse. but everybody who covers it says boy. He never
did many covers anyhow, so it would be more
logical to say that he did write it, 'cause
he did.
-macg1 | 11/9/2005 | Actually look it up, Dylan did not write the song, the artist is unknown for sure. This song has been around for longer than even Dylan.
