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

             G
Clouds are drifting across the moon
            C               G
Cats are prowling on their beat

Springs a girl from the streets at night
           D               Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town

           G
I heard a siren from the docks
        C                     G
Saw a train set the night on fire

I smelled the spring on the smokey wind
           D               Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town

           G                      
I'm gonna make 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

          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
           D               Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
