I met my l^Gove, by the gas works wall Dreamed a d^Cream, by the old c^Ganal

I kissed my girl, by the factory wall

Dirty old t^Down, dirty old t^Emown Clouds are d^Grifting across the moon Cats are p^Crowling on their b^Geats

Springs a girl on the streets at night

d^Dirty old town, d^Emirty old town Bridge played over: C C C C F F C C C C C C G G Am

Heard a s^Giren from the dock saw a ^Ctrain cut the night on ^Gfire

smelled the breeze on the smokey wind

dirty old t^Down, dirty old ^Emtown

I'm going to ^Gmake me a big sharp ax Shining s^Cteel tempered in the ^Gfire

I'll chop you down like an old dead tree

dirty old ^Dtown, dirty old ^Emtown

I met my ^Glove, by the gas works wall Dreamed a ^Cdream, by the old c^Ganal

I kissed my girl, by the factory wall

Dirty old t^Down, dirty old t^Emown Dirty old t^Down, dirty old t^Emown
