As recorded by Rod Stewart (From the 1970 Album AN OLD RAINCOAT WON'T EVER LET YOU DOWN) [Intro] C [Verse 1]

C
Found my love by the gaswork croft

C
Dreamed a dream by the old canal

          Am                   C
Kissed my girl by the factory wall

          Dm   G            Am    N.C.
Dirty old town,   dirty old town

[Verse 2]

          C
I heard a siren from the dock

C
Saw a train set the night on fire

        Am                         C
Smelled the spring on the sulfured wind

                     G   F         Am    N.C.
Dirty old town, whoa-oh, dirty old town

[Verse 3]

               C
We're goin' to take a good sharp axe

C
Shining steel tempered in the fire

               Am                        C
And we'll chop you down like an old dead tree

          Dm          Am
Dirty old town, dirty old town

          Dm         G         Am       N.C.
Dirty old town, whoa-oh, dirty old town

[Interlude] Am [Outro]

Am
And oh we'll chop you down

Am
Oh, dirty, dirty, dirty old town

Am
Dirty old town, dirty old town

Am
And oh whoa-oh dirty old town

Am
Chop you down one of these days
