B
I met my love by the gas works wall
E B
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I Kissed my girl by the factory wall
F# G#m
Dirty old town, dirty old town
[Verse]
B
Clouds are drifting across the moon
E B
Cats are prowling on their beat
Spring's a girl from the streets at night
F# G#m
Dirty old town, dirty old town
[Bridge]:
E A E B C#m
[Verse]
B
I Heard a siren from the docks
E B
Saw a train set the night on fire
I Smelled the spring on the smoky wind
F# G#m
Dirty old town, dirty old town
[Verse]
B
I'm gonna make me a big sharp axe
E B
Shining steel tempered in the fire
I'll chop you down like an old dead tree
F# G#m
Dirty old town, dirty old town
[Verse]
