Dirty Old Town - The Pogues

            [Verse] A A A A -  D D A  A

(I met my love      A A A A - (E E F#m F#m)

 By the gas works wall

 Dreamed a dream  - By the old canal

 I kissed my girl - By the factory wall)

(Dirty old town   - Dirty old town x1)


(Clouds are drifting      [Verse] (E  E

 Across the moon                   F#m G)

 Cats are prowling - On their beat

 Spring's a girl

 From the streets at night)

[Verse]               D D D D - G G D  D

(I heard a siren      D D D D - A A Bm C#7

 From the docks

 Saw a train - Set the night on fire

 I smelled the spring

 On the smoky wind)    [Intro] E  E  E  E

                               A  A  E  E

[Verse] (I'm gonna make        F#m F#m C#m E

 Me a big sharp axe

 Shining steel - Tempered in the fire

 I'll chop you down

 Like an old dead tree)
