Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][D][D][D]
[G][G][D][D]
[Em][Em][Bm][Bm]

[Verse 1]
I met my [G]love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a [C]dream by the old [G]canal
I kissed my [G]girl by the factory wall
Dirty old [D]town
Dirty old [Em]town

[Verse 2]
Clouds are [G]drifting across the moon
Cats are [C]prowling on their [G]beat
Spring's a [G]girl from the streets at night
Dirty old [D]town
Dirty old [Em]town

[Interlude 1]
[C][C][C][C]
[F][F][C][C]
[C][C][C][C]
[G][G][Am][Am]

[Verse 3]
I heard a [G]siren from the docks
Saw a [C]train set the night on [G]fire
I smelled the [G]spring on the smoky wind
Dirty old [D]town
Dirty old [Em]town

[Verse 4]
I'm gonna [G]make me a big sharp axe
Shining [C]steel tempered in the [G]fire
I'll chop you [G]down like an old dead tree
Dirty old [D]town
Dirty old [Em]town

[Verse 5]
I met my [G]love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a [C]dream by the old [G]canal
I kissed my [G]girl by the factory wall
Dirty old [Am]town
Dirty old [Em]town
Dirty old [D]town
Dirty old [Em]town
