G
I met my love, by the gas yard 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 drifting across the moon
Cats are prowling on their beat
Spring's a girl in the street at night
Dirty old town, dirty old town
D G D A7 Bm
I heard a siren from the dock
Saw a train set the night on fire
I smelled the spring on the smokey wind
Dirty old town, dirty old town
I'm going to make a big sharp axe
Shining steel tempered in the fire
I'll chop you down like an old dead tree
Dirty old town, dirty old town
I met my love, by the gas yard wall
Dreamed a dream, by the old canal
I kissed my girl, by the factory wall
Dirty old town, dirty old town
D Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
