House of The Rising Sun(Melody Maker) Harmonica Tab

2 3 -3 4 5 -4 3 3
There is a house in New Orleans,

-6 -6 -6 6 5 5
They call the Rising Sun.

-6 -6 -6 -3 4 5 -4 3 3 3 3
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy,

-3 3 3 -2 2 -2 3
And God, I kn-ow I’m one.

-6 7 -6 6 4 -4 3
My mother was a tailor,

-6 -6 6 5 5
Sewed my new blue jeans.

-6 -6 -6 6 4 -4 3 3 4
My fa-ther was a gamblin’ man,

3 3 -2 2 -2 3
Down in New Orleans.

-6 -6 -6 -6 6 4 -4 3 4
Now the onl–y thing a gambler needs,

-6 -6 -6 -6 6 5 5
Is a suitcase and a trunk,

-6 -6 -6 -6 6 4 -4
And the o-nly time he’ll be,

3 3 4 3 3 3 -2 2 -2 3
Sa-tisfied, is when he’s a-ll a drunk.

2 3 -3 4 5 -4 3 3
Oh mother tell your children,

-6 -6 -6 -6 6 5 5
Not to do what I have done.

7 -3 4 5 -4 3 3 3 3
Spend your lives in sin and misery,

3 3 3 3 -2 2 -2 3
In the house of the rising sun.

-6 -6 -6 6 4 -4 3 3 4
Well I’ve got one foot on the platform.

-6 -6 -6 6 5 5
The other foot on the train.

-6 -6 -6 6 4 -4 3 3 4
I’m go–in’ back to New Orleans,

-3 3 3 -2 2 -2 3
To wear that ball and chain

-6 -6 -6 -6 6 4 -4 3 3
Well there is a house in New Orleans,

-6 -6 -6 6 5 5
They call the Rising Sun.

-6 -6 -6 -3 4 5 -4 3 3 3 4
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy,

-3 3 3 -2 2 -2 3
And God, I know I’m one.
