Dirty Old Town

Intro: E, B,
               E
I met my love, by the gas works wall
                   A                             E
Dreamed a dream, by the old canal

I kissed my girl, by the factory wall
               B                      A
Dirty old town, dirty old town


            E
Clouds are drifting across the moon
              A                          E
Cats are prowling on their beats

Springs a girl on the streets at night
              B                      A
Dirty old town, dirty old town


             E
Heard a siren from the dock
         A                                E
Saw a train cut the night on fire

Smelled the breeze on the smokey wind
              B                      A
Dirty old town, dirty old town


                   E
I'm going to make me a big sharp ax
             A                                E
Shining steel tempered in the fire

I'll chop you down like an old dead tree
              B                      A
Dirty old town, dirty old town
