E
Sitting here with Auntie Nellie, she is so alone
E
Talking idly, she's in no hurry, I wish I could go
     A
But how could I just say Goodbye,
                         G  A B
there's no-one who she knows

Chorus:
   E        A        B      A       E A B
No I can't leave my Auntie Nellie, no
   E        A        B      A       E A B
No I can't leave my Auntie Nellie, no

A     G#      G       F#m    F
She's getting old and weary, oh it's such a shame
 A                   C#m G    F#m
'Cos she's been good to  everyone but
 F                       B
now they don't know her name

Chorus

Sitting here with Auntie Nellie, she is so alone
Talking idly, she's in no hurry, I wish I could go
But how could I just say 'Goodbye',
there's no-one who she knows

Chorus:
No I can't leave my Auntie Nellie, no
She's so alone, she'd die if I should go
No I can't leave my Auntie Nellie, no
She's so alone
