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
*********************************************
G Met my love, by the gas yard wall C Dreamed a dream, by the old canal G Kissed my girl, by the factory wall D Em Dirty old town, dirty old town
