Lyrics

| G  | - | D  | - |
| Em | - | Bm | - |

[Verse 1]
           G
I met my love by the gas works wall
              C              G
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I kissed my girl by the factory wall
          D               Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
Clouds are drift

[Verse 2]
G
 ing across the moon
             C             G
Cats are prowling on their beat
Spring's a girl from the streets at night
          D               Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town

[Bridge]
C F C G
Am
I heard a si

[Verse 3]
G
 ren from the docks
          C                  G
Saw a train set the night on fire
I smelled the spring on the smoky wind
          D               Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
I'm gonna make

[Verse 4]
G
 me a big sharp axe
        C                     G
Shining steel tempered in the fire
I'll chop you down like an old dead tree
          D               Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town

[Outro]
           G
I met my love by the gas works wall
              C              G
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I kissed my girl by the factory wall
          Am              Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
          D               Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town.
