Very nice, one of my favorites !
Brings back memories of when I played guitar in an acoustic folk harmony trio back in the early 90's.
I think what richardguitar1 meant to suggest below was adding a D major with an F# in the bass between the F and C chords after the E7. Makes for a nice 'Dylan-esque' style passing chord. (These are actual chord positions played, kapo or no kapo.

And looks like Liz Cotten was left handed too !
This video has allowed me to learn to play this piece which my grandfather used to play for me when I was a boy in the 50's He always said this was his favorite. I have been trying for years to find the breakout notes for this song and you have provided it very very well. Thank you so much
