[Ab] There is a [Fm] house in Charming Town
They call the [Ab] [C] Rising Sun
[Fm] And it's been [Ab] the ruin [Bb] of many a poor [Bbm] girl
[Fm] And me, [C] oh God, [Fm] I'm one
If I listen [Ab] to [Bb] my mama
[Fm] Lord, [Ab] I'd be [C] home today
But [F] I [Ab] was young [Bb] and foolish
A [Fm] handsome rider [C] led me [Fm] astray
Go tell [Ab] my [Bb] baby sister
[Bbm]
Never [F] do [Ab] I've [C] done
To [Fm] shut [Ab] up the house [Bb] in [Db] Charming Town

[Fm] Is a suitcase [Ab]
[C] and a gun
The [F] [Ab] only time [Bb] he's [Db] satisfied
[Fm] Is when [C] he's on [Fm] the run
He [Ab] fills his [Bb] chamber up [Db] with lead
[Fm] Takes [Ab] his pain [C] to town
[Fm] Only [Ab] pleasure he [Bb] gets out [Db] alive
[Fm] Is bringing [C] another [Fm] man down

[Db] [Fm] On [C] his [Fm] father's stake
And me, [Ab] I wait [Bbm] in Charming Town
[Fm] The game my [C] lover's won
[Fm] And I'm [Ab] staying here [Bb] to end [Db] my life
[Fm] Down in [C] the [Fm] Rising Sun
And [F] [Ab] [Bb] [Db]
