Dirty Old Town [G] - The Pogues
[G]
I met my [G]love... by the gas works wall
Dreamed a [C]dream... by the old ca[G]nal
I kissed my [Em]girl... by the factory [G]wall
Dirty old [Am]town... [D7] dirty old [Em]town
Clouds are [G]dri-i-ifting across the moon
Cats are [C]pro-o-owling on their [G]beat
Springs a [Em]girl... from the streets at [G]night
Dirty old [Am] town... [D7]dirty old [Em]town
I heard a [G]siren... coming from the docks
Saw a [C]train... set the night on [G]fire
I smelled the [Em]spring... on the smoky [G]wind
Dirty old [Am] town... [D7]dirty old [Em]town
I'm gonna [G]make me... a big sharp axe
Shining [C]steel... tempered in a [G]fire
I’ll chop you [Em]down... like an old dead [G]tree
Dirty old [Am]town... [D7]dirty old [Em]town
I met my [G]love... by the gas works wall
Dreamed a [C]dream... by the old ca[G]nal
I kissed my [Em]girl... by the factory [G]wall
Dirty old [Am] town... [D7]dirty old [Em]town
Dirty old [Am] town... [D7]dirty old [Em]town
Dirty old [Am] town... [D7]dirty old [Em]town
