Verse 1
(E minor) (B major) (E minor) There is a house
in (B major) New Orleans
(E minor) They call the (F sharp major) rising sun (B major)
And it's been (E minor) the ruin of (B major) many
Me, poor girl, (E minor) and me, (F sharp major) oh (B major) God, poor (E minor) one (B major)
If I (E minor) had listened to what
(B major) my mammy said (E minor)
I'd have been at (F sharp major) home today (B major)
But being (E minor) so young and (B major) foolish,
oh (E minor) Lord
I'll let a rambler (F sharp major) lead (B major) me astray (E minor) (C major)
(B major) Now go (E minor) tell, tell my baby sister (B major) (E minor)
Please don't do what (F sharp major) I have done (B major)
Oh, no, go (E minor) shun that house
in (B major) New Orleans (E minor)
A (F sharp major) calm rising (B major) sun (E minor)
Interlude 1
(B major) (E minor) (B major) (E minor) (F sharp major)
(B major) (E minor) (B major) (D sharp major) (E minor) (F sharp major) (B major) (E minor) (B major)

Verse 2
I'm (E minor) going back to (B major) New Orleans (E minor)
My race is (F sharp major) almost running
(B major) I'm (E minor) going to spend the
(B major) rest of my days (E minor)
Beneath (F sharp major) that (B major) rising sun
(E minor) You
