I'm sure all the lyrics and chords are correct, if not apologies, this is my first tab.

The strum pattern is a sort of shuffle but you can be quite free with it.

Listen to the song to get the best feel.

Enjoy!

(All chords are open NOT barred)

Verse:

I met my love by the gasworks wall

Dreamed a dream by the old canal

I kissed my girl by the factory wall

Dirty old town, dirty old town

Clouds are drifting across the moon

Cats are prowling on their beat

Springs a girl from the streets at night

Dirty old town, dirty old town

I heard a siren from the docks

Saw a train set the night on fire

I smelled the spring on the smoky wind

Dirty old town, dirty old town

Bridge: G C G D Em (There is a slight variation on the chords but I'm not sure

what it is, any ideas would be appreciated)

I'm gonna make me a big sharp axe

Shining steel tempered in the fire

I'll chop you down like an old dead tree

Dirty old town, dirty old town

(For the final verse just do a single down stroke on each of the chords)

I met my love by the gasworks wall

Dreamed a dream by the old canal

I kissed my girl by the factory wall

Dirty old town, dirty old town

Dirty old town, dirty old town
