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)
Intro: G C G D Em
Verse:
G
I met my love by the gasworks wall
C G
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I kissed my girl by the factory wall
D Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
G
Clouds are drifting across the moon
C G
Cats are prowling on their beat
Springs a girl from the streets at night
D Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
G
I heard a siren from the docks
C G
Saw a train set the night on fire
I smelled the spring on the smoky wind
D Em
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)
G
I'm gonna make me a big sharp axe
C G
Shining steel tempered in the fire
I'll chop you down like an old dead tree
D Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
(For the final verse just do a single down stroke on each of the chords)
G
I met my love by the gasworks wall
C G
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I kissed my girl by the factory wall
D Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
D Em
Dirty old town, dirty old town
