[Intro]
 
E   C#m  E  C#m  E   B  E
 
 
    E                              C#m           E
Out on the lonely hillside -- In a cabin low and small
          C#m              E             B7       E
Lived the sweetest rose of color -- My Rosa Lee McFall
 
    E                                     C#m                E
Her hair was bright some color -- and her voice was sweet to me
            C#m           E                   B7                E
I know that I will always love her -- And I hope that she loved me
 
E   C#m  E  C#m  E   B  E
 
        E                           C#m              E
I asked her to be my darling -- And this is what she said
              C#m            E               B7          E
You know that I will only be happy -- When you and I are wed
 
     E                           C#m             E
Then God way up in heaven -- One day for her did call
          C#m             E                 B7       E
I lost my bride, oh how I loved her -- My Rosa Lee McFall
 
E   C#m  E  C#m  E   B  E
 
      E                              C#m              E
I've searched the wide world over -- Cities great and small
         C#m          E                   B7       E
But I've never found another -- Like my Rosa Lee McFall
 
E   C#m  E  C#m  E   B  E
 
    E                              C#m           E
Out on the lonely hillside -- In a cabin low and small
          C#m              E             B7       E
Lived the sweetest rose of color -- My Rosa Lee McFall

It’s a lot easier if you put a capo on the 4th fret, then change E for C, C#m for Am, and B7 for G7

it's a good version. Use the E chord in the 3rd position as if you were playing an C but slid down 5 frets with index finger covering b note that way you can play between E and c#m with only changing 2 fingers, strumming at the appropriate times throughout the lead.
