It might just be me being thick, but I think there's not enough context or description here to figure out what you mean unless you've seen this approach before.
Would it be possible to describe the goal and approach a bit more?
So in Doe a deer, if playing in E, you'd play:
Doe - E major, standard E chord.
Ray - well that's a dominant chord, ie B, but you want to play the bottom F#
Me - that's an E chord again but you want the C# to be the bottom chord, so you play 1st inversion (or E over G#)
Far - this is a B7 chord, with the bass note being the 7th, which is an A, so here you're playing B 3rd inversion, or "B7 over A"
Etc.
It's a really good song for practising your inversions, thus enabling you to hold the tune in the bass.

How about an approach which says FOR each degree of the scale, list the triads (from the scale) that contain it, and for the purposes of playing melodies supported by triad harmonies, which of those have that scale degree as their highest note?
eg The tonic is contained within the triads formed on the 1st, 4th and 6th degrees of the scale and is the highest note in the 1st inversion of the I triad, the root position of the IV triad and the 2nd inversion of the vi triad
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
is it crazy how saying sentences backwards creates backwards sentences saying how crazy it is?
Tab won't explain it. Not at all.

Is this right??

The A one is the "3rd inversion" of B, eg 56744x or 56444x.
The whole point of it is that you walk up the scale on the low e-string, like in the song.

I get that now but please supply chord 3 again.. 'cos you've repeated exactly what I put, and there is no low E fret.
and if you would be so kind as to list any more in a similar fashion??
