Dirty Old Town - The Pogues

(I met my love      B B B B - (F# F# G#m G#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] (F#  F#

 Across the moon                   G#m A)

 Cats are prowling - On their beat

 Spring's a girl

 From the streets at night)

(I heard a siren      E E E E - B B C#m D#7

 From the docks

 I smelled the spring

 On the smoky wind)    [Intro] F#  F#  F#  F#

 Shining steel - Tempered in the fire

 I'll chop you down

 Like an old dead tree)
