          D
I met my love, by the gas works wall
           G                 D
Dreamed a dream, by the old canal

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


            D
Clouds are drifting across the moon
          G                 D
Cats are prowling on their beats

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

Interlude: G G G G  C C  G G G G G G  D D  Em

         D
Heard a siren from the dock
      G                      D
saw a train cut the night on fire

smelled the breeze on the smokey wind
           A              Bm
dirty old town, dirty old town


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

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


         D
I met my love, by the gas works wall
          G                  D
Dreamed a dream, by the old canal

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