[Verse 1]
F#m D/F# A
There is a house in New Orleans
C#m A/C# D
They call the Rising Sun
F#m D/F# A
And it's been the ruin of many poor souls
C#m A/C# D
And lord, my father is one
C#m B5
My mother, she's a tailor
B D A
She sews those blue blue jeans
F#m A
To keep my gambling father drunk
C#m A/C# D
Deep down in New Orleans
[Refrain]
D C#5 A D
It's a happy, happy, happy, happy, fun day, day

[Verse 2]
F#m D/F# A
Like a bird flying over forest fire
C#m A/C# D
My father feels the heat beneath his wings
F#m D/F# A
And in debt he leaves for another tower
C#m A/C# D
Where he gambles and drunk he still drinks
C#m B5
My mother hides from pleasure
B D A
Sees the father on her knees
F#m A
Left it in the arms of God
C#m A/C# D
Away from New Orleans
[Refrain]
D C#5 A D
Happy, happy, happy, happy, fun day, day

Happy, happy, happy, happy, fun day, day
