"Dirty Old Town" - as played by The Dubliners [Verse 1]
       G
Met my love, by the gasworks croft

          C                   G
Dreamed a dream, by the old canal

            G
I kissed my girl, by the factory wall

          D               Em     G


[Verse 2]
[tab]           G
Clouds are drifting across the moon

         C                 G
Cats are prowling on their beat

           G
Spring's a girl from the streets at night

          D               Em     G
Dirty old town, dirty old town
[Verse 3]
          G
I heard a siren from the docks

      C                      G
Saw a train set the night on fire

            G
Smelled the spring on the smoky wind

          D               Em     G
Dirty old town, dirty old town
[Verse 4]
             G
I'm going to make a big sharp axe

         C                    G
Shining steel tempered in the fire

             G
I'll cut you down like an old dead tree

          D               Em     G
Dirty old town, dirty old town
[Verse 5]
       G
Met my love, by the gas works wall

          C                   G
Dreamed a dream, by the old canal

            G
I kissed my girl, by the factory wall

          D               Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town

          D               G
Dirty old town, dirty old town
