She was hanging in a pawn shop in Memphis, TN.
 C majorC          G+G           D MajorD
She was young & high strung her name was Rosalie,
  D MajorD                 C majorC      D MajorD
Her neck was long & slender, they said all the pearls are fine,
  C majorC           G+G           D MajorD
I gave up my wedding ring so I could make her mine,
  D MajorD
Then she rode with me to Nashville, where we joined a
C majorC                D MajorD
Country band, played a thousand different honky tonks
  G+G           D MajorD       D MajorD
And a thousand one night stands, Thru good times & ss
      C majorC        D MajorD         C majorC||
the bad times she gives me company, she made a nice -i
   G+G           D MajorD
sweet home with me my little Rosalie,

Chorus  D MajorD   C majorC   G+G   D MajorD    C majorC   G+G     D MajorD
Rosalie, Rosalie, Rosalie, no one else got so close to me
  C majorC           G+G           D MajorD
Although there has been others, there will never be,
  C majorC     G+G         D MajorD       C majorC
Another one quite like my little Rosalie, No there will
 G+G             D MajorD
Never be another one like my Rosalie,

2nd verse D MajorD           C majorC       D MajorD
Well the money wasn't good, it was few & far between,
C majorC              G+G             D MajorD
But then he'd start drinkin' & the fiddle split the scene
  D MajorD            C majorC           D MajorD
Old Rosie stood besides me, thru the highs & the lows
  C majorC           G+G          D MajorD
And I was playing in a band, paying thru the nose

Solo
 D MajorD                  C majorC         D MajorD
Well I left her where I found her, and I walked out with a gun
   C majorC          G+G           D MajorD
I was half cocked & loaded I went looking for someone
  D MajorD              C majorC          D MajorD
Then I came back in the springtime, I promised her I would
  C majorC          G+G          D MajorD
But Rosalie long gone, this time it was for good,

Chorus     3rd verse
   D MajorD              C majorC        D MajorD
Then late last night in the evening, I saw her on T V
   C majorC         G+G           D MajorD
Another guitar man was a holding my pretty Rosalie,
  D MajorD           C majorC             D MajorD
Her neck was long & slender, and her body curves so fine,
    C majorC          G+G         D MajorD
I weep & now remember when sweet Rosalie was mine,
