House of the Risin' Sun(ver.2) Tablatura

	   this song is in 6/8 so think of the counting in two  
sets of tripplets,  1,2,3,2,2,3 (1,2,3,4,5,6). there is  
a great figured chromatic bass line that is essential  
to the way Bob performs this song, it truly makes the  
song so make sure you get the low notes. the strumming  
pattern, as indicated, is 1 2a3 4 5a6 but hell its much  
easier to just litsen to a recording.

Lyrics: 
 
       Am  C/G           D/F#         F 
There is a house down in new orleans 
 
     Am       E      Am    E 
They call the risin? sun 
 
         Am       C/G     D/F#        F 
And it?s been the ruin of many a poor girl 
 
    Am      E         Am    E 
And me, oh god, I?m a-one 
 
My mother was a tailor 
She sewed these new blue jeans 
My sweetheart was a gambler, lord 
Down in new orleans 
 
(NOTE: in some of Bobs Recordings he does not sing  
a few of these verses) 
 
Now the only thing a gambler needs 
Is a suitcase and a trunk 
And the only time he?s satisfied 
Is when he?s on a drunk 
 
He fills his glasses up to the brim 
And he?ll pass the cards around 
And the only pleasure he gets out of life 
Is ramblin? from town to town 
 
(he sings this next one and then goes to the end  
and repeats the first verse) 
 
Oh tell my baby sister 
Not to do what I have done 
But shun that house in new orleans 
They call the risin? sun 
 
Well, it?s one foot on the platform 
And the other foot on the train 
I?m goin? back to new orleans 
To wear that ball and chain 
 
I?m a-goin? back to new orleans 
My race is almost run 
I?m goin? back to end my life 
Down in the risin? sun 
 
There is a house in new orleans 
They call the risin? sun 
It?s been the ruin of many poor girl 
And me, oh god, I?m a-one
