Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]MacColl
I found my love by
the gasworks croft
Dreamed [G]a dream by the old [D]canal
I kissed my girl by the factory wall
Dirty [G]old town, dirty [D]old town

[Verse 2]
[D]I heard a siren from the docks
Saw [G]a train set the night [D]on fire
Smelled the spring in the saltkirk wind
Dirty [G]old town, [Em]dirt[G]y old [D]town

[Verse 3]
[D]
We'll go and make [G]a g[D]ood sharp axe
Shining [G]steel tempered in the [D]fire
We'll chop you down like
an old dead tree
Dirty [G]old town, [Em]dirt[G]y old town[D]

[Verse 4]
[D]I found my love by the
gasworks croft
Dreamed [G]a dream by [D]the old canal
I kissed [G]my [Em]girl[Bm]
by the factory [G]wall[D]
Dirty [G]old town, [Em]dirt[G]y old town[D]
