⬆ Sorry, yesterday, I gave wrong chords. I was strumming it today and tweaked it. The changes are in green...
I googled William Zantzinger and learned that he died this year, on January 9th. Death is sad, either way. (of course.)
Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll
by Bob Dylan
VERSE 1
C♯mWilliam Zantzinger killed Bpoor Hattie Carroll
With a C♯mcane that he twirled 'round his Bdiamond ring'd finger.
At a EBaltimore C♯mhotel, so-Bciety gathering.
And the Ecops were called C♯min, and his Bwea-pon took from him.
And they Erode him to C♯mcustody Bdown to the station.
And booked EWilliam Zan-C♯mzinger for Bfirst degree murder.
CHORUS
But Ayou Bwho phil-Eosophize dis-C♯mgrace
And Acriti-Bcize all C♯mfears,
ATake the Brag a-Eway from your C♯mface.
ANow ain't the Btime for your Etears.

Improvise and strum that guitar to create instrumental breaks between verses or wherever. If you're lucky enough to have a harmonica player around or any other fellow musician. You play the basic progression, like this:
C♯m, B, C♯m, B,
E, C♯m, B
E, C♯m, B
A, B, E, C♯m,
A, B, C♯m
A, B, E, C♯m
A, B, E, (or any other variation thereof, have fun with improv.! )
