The White Buffalo – House Of The Rising Sun chords

  
There is a house in Charming Town
     Am       C      EThey call the Rising Son
     Am       C       D           FIt's been the ruin of many a poor girl
    Am     E        AmAnd me, Oh God, I'm one

  Am  C       D     FIf I listened to my mama
     Am     C    ELord I'd be home today
    Am    C     D         FBut I was young and foolish
         Am     E        AmAnd some rider led me astray

    Am  C       D     FGo tell my baby sister
       Am     C    Enever do what I've done
   Am        C       D         FTo sell the house in Charming Town
     Am     E        AmThey call the Rising Son

   Am      C     D     FMy Mother, she's a tailor
    Am        C       EShe sewed my new blue jeans
   Am        C     D  FMy sweetheart he's a rambler
    Am           E    AmLord he rides an old machine

Now the only thing a rambler needs
is a suitcase and a gun
the only time he's satisfied
is when he's on the run

He fills his chamber up with lead
and takes his pain to town
the only pleasure he gets out of life
is bringing another man down

He's got one hand on the throttle
the other on the breaks
he's riding back to Redwood
On his father's stake

And me I wait in Charming Town
To gain my love as one
I'm staying here to lend my life
Down in the Rising Son

I'm staying here to end my life
Down in the Rising Son
