Dirty Old Town - Ewan McColl

C
I met my love, by the gas works wall
           F                C
Dreamed a dream, by the old canal

Kissed my girl, by the factory wall
           G               Am
Dirty old town, dirty old town

         C
Heard a siren from the docks
      F                      C
saw a train set the night on fire
C
smelled the breeze on the smokey wind
          G               Am
dirty old town, dirty old town

            C
Clouds are drifting on the street
         F                 C
Cats are prowling on their beats
C
Spring's a girl on the streets at night
G               Am
dirty old town, dirty old town

             C
I'm going to make a big sharp ax
         F                    C
shining steel tempered in the fire
C
I'll chop you down like an old dead tree
          G               Am
dirty old town, dirty old town

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