Dirty Old Town [☘️] - Ewan McColl
[C] [C] [C]
[HUM ] I met my [C]love... by the gas [F] works [C] croft
Dreamed a [F] dream... by the old ca[C]nal
I [F] kissed my [C] girl... by the [F] factory [C]wall
[ALL]
Dirty old [Dm]town... dirty old [Am]town

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