Transcriber: Joe Leary
(Shuffle feel, very open and loose)
G
Met my love, by the gas yard wall
C G
Dreamed a dream, by the old canal
Kissed my girl, by the factory wall
D Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
****************************************
G
Heard a siren from the dock
C G
saw a train cut the night on fire
G
smelled the breeze on the smokey wind
D Em
dirty old town, dirty old town
*****************************************
G
I'm going to make a big sharp ax
C
shining steel tempered in the fire
G
I'll cut you down like an old dead tree
D Em
dirty old town, dirty old town
********************************************
G
Clouds are drifting on the street
C
Cats are prowling on their beats
G
Springs a girl on the streets at night
D Em
dirty old town, dirty old town
*********************************************

Dirty old town, dirty old town
