Dirty Old Town chords

Capo 1

Intro: [E] , [B] ,
I met my love, [E]by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream, by[A] the old canal [E]

I kissed my girl, by the factory wall
Dirty old town,[B] dirty old town [A]


Clouds are d[E]rifting across the moon
Cats are prowl[A]ing on their beats [E]

Springs a girl on the streets at night
Dirty old town[B] , dirty old town [A]


Heard a siren[E] from the dock
Saw a tra[A]in cut the night on fire [E]

Smelled the breeze on the smokey wind
Dirty old town[B] , dirty old town [A]


I'm going to make m[E]e a big sharp ax
Shining steel[A] tempered in the fire [E]

I'll chop you down like an old dead tree
Dirty old town[B] , dirty old town [A]


(Change Key)

I met my [A]love, by the gas works wall
Dreamed a [D]dream, by the old c[A]anal

I kissed my girl, by the factory wall
Dirty old town, [E]dirty old town [D]
Dirty old town,[E] dirty old town [D]
