Dirty Old Town

Ted Leo

Biography:

Essentially the solo arm of Ted Leo & the Pharmacists; Leo has done one ep (Tell Belgury, Balegury is dead) that was originally to be a Pharmacists single. The single of the Pharmacists song was expanded to include a live solo version of the Pharmacists song "The High Party" as well as a handful of originals and covers being performed by Leo himself ala early Billy Bragg.

Leo often plays live solo and many times while the Pharmacists are on tour

Here are the chords for Dirty Old Town (an Ewan MacColl song) as played by Ted Leo
on Tell Balgeary, Balgury Is Dead.

I don't know if it's actually played in E, that's just how I play it. You can
transpose it as necessary.

The A/C# chord is played x4222x, and the E7 chord is 020100 (not the other way).
Everything else is standard.


E A E (1h2p1 on the g string)
I found my love by the gasworks croft

A/C# Abm A B
Dreamed a dream by the old canal

E Abm C#m B
Kissed my girl by the factory wall

A B E7
Dirty old town, dirty old town.


E A E
Clouds a-driftin' across the moon

A/C# Abm A B
Cats and dogs prowlin' in their beat

E Abm C#m B
Spring's a girl in the streets at night

A B E C#m
Dirty old town, dirty old town.

A B E7
Dirty old town, dirty old town.


E A E
Heard a siren from the docks

A/C# Abm A B
Saw a train set the night on fire

E Abm C#m B
Smelled the fall on the smokey wind

A B E C#m
Dirty old town, dirty old town.

A B E7
Dirty old town, dirty old town.

E A E
I'm gonna get myself a good sharp axe

A/C# Abm A B
Shining steel tempered in the fire

E Abm C#m B
Gonna cut you down like a dead old tree

A B E7
Dirty old town, dirty old town.


E A E
I found my love by the gasworks croft

A/C# Abm A B
Dreamed a dream by the old canal

E Abm C#m B
Kissed my girl by the factory wall

A B E C#m
In this dirty old town, dirty old town.

A B E C#m
Dirty old town, dirty old town.

A B E7
Dirty old town, dirty old town.
