ROSALEE
As recorded by Molly Tuttle
(From the 2025 Album SO LONG LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE)
[Intro]
Em Am D
Em
[Verse 1]
Em
Off a no-name road on Chickasaw Bluff
G
Feel the hair on the back of your neck stand up
Am
When you see those cypress roots that wind
C D
'Round a marble stone that says "Bill O'Brian"
Em
Legend lives, the old folks tell
G
The ghost of a lawman haunts these hills
Am
Looking for the woman that shot him down
C D A
And the .44 that was never found
C D
Under that Chickasaw ground
[Chorus]
Am Em
Rosalee
B7 Em
You better run before they hunt you down in Tennessee
Am Em
Damn that deputy
B7 Em
'Cause a jealous heart ain't worth the cost of hanging from the gallows tree
Am B7
And what if they find out just who fired the gun?
N.C. Em
Rosalee, you better run
[Verse 2]
Em
More thorn than rose, how oft they'd say
G
Of the girl with the golden hair in braids
Am
Raven eyes and her copper kettle
C D
Charmed the hearts of the best bootleggers
Em
Bill O'Brian moved in on the bluff
G
He laid the law down a little too rough
Am
Busting every keg and still
C D A
'Til he fell in love with that whiskey gal
C D
If I can't have her, no man will
