[B] [F#]
[B]
There's a low green valley [E] by York and Perkinshaw
Where [G#m] I spend [B]
many happy hours [F#] away
[B] Sitting and singing [E] by the little kind
No [B] where I'll leave [F#] my darling Nelly [B] Grain
Oh [F#] my poor Nelly Grain, they [B] have taken you away
And I've never seen [C#] the dawning [F#] anymore
I'm [B] saddened by the river [E] and I'm weeping all the day
For [B] you've gone [F#] from York and [B] Perkinshaw
One night I went to see her but [E] she's gone
The neighbours [B] say the white man found her with [F#] a chain
[B] They've taken her to Georgia [E] for where her life away
As [B] she'd moaned [F#] in the cotton and [B] the cane
Oh [F#] my poor Nelly Grain, they [B] have taken you away
And I've never [C#] seen the dawning [F#] anymore
I'm [B] saddened by the river and [E] I'm weeping all the day
For [B] you've gone [F#] from York and [B] Perkinshaw

[B]
[F#] [B]
eyes getting [E] blinded, cannot see my way
[B] There's somebody looking [F#] at the door
[B] I hear the angels calling, [E] I see my Nelly Grain
[B] Farewell [F#] to York and [B] Perkinshaw
Oh [F#] my darling Nelly Grain, up [B] in heaven they'll escape
They'll never take [C#] you from me [F#] anymore
So [B] I'm coming, yes I'm coming at [E] thee
She does clear the way, [B] farewell [F#] to York and [B] Perkinshaw
