Four years of hard work!

This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

You can play this with or without a capo. Personally I like playing it with capo on 1st or 2nd fret.
Finger picking is optional, but it sounds nicer.

Am C D F
There is a house in New Orleans
Am C E7
They call the rising sun
Am C D F
And it's been the ruin of many a poor girls
Am E Am E7
And god, I know I'm one

Am C D F
My mother was a tailor.
Am C E7
She sowed my new blue jeans.
Am C D F
My sweetheart he was a gamblin' man
Am E Am E7
Down in New Orleans

Am C D F
Oh mother tell my baby sister
Am C E7
Not to do what I have done
Am C D F
But shun that house in New Orleans
Am E Am E7
They call the rising sun

Am C D F
With one foot on the platform
Am C E7
The other's on the train
Am C D F
I'm going back to New Orleans
Am E Am E7
To wear that ball and chain
