[Verse]

G Em

As I was going over - The Cork and Kerry Mountains

C G

I saw Captain Farrell - And his money he was counting

G Em

I first produced my pistol - And then produced my rapier

C G

I said "Stand and deliver - Or the devil he may take ya"

| Em | Em | G | G | x2

G Em

I took all of his money - And it was a pretty penny

C G

I took all of his money - Yeah, and I brought it home to Molly

G Em

She swore that she loved me - No, never would she leave me

C G

But the devil take that woman - Yeah, for you know she tricked me easy

[Chorus]

Musha rain dum-a-do dum-a-da

Whack for my daddy-o

There`s whiskey in the jar-o

| Em | Em | G | G | x2

[Verse]

G Em

Being drunk and weary - I went to Molly`s chamber

C G

Taking Molly with me - But I never knew the danger

G Em

For about six or maybe seven - Yeah, in walked Captain Farrell

C G

I jumped up, fired my pistols - And I shot him with both barrels

[Chorus]

Musha rain dum-a-do dum-a-da

Whack for my daddy-o

There`s whiskey in the jar-o

[Verse]

G Em

Now some men like the fishing - And some men like the fowling

C G

And some men like to hear - To hear the cannonball a-roaring

G Em

Me, I like sleeping - Especially in my Molly`s chamber

C G

But here I Em in prison - Here I Em with a ball and chain, yeah

[Chorus]

Musha rain dum-a-do dum-a-da

Whack for my daddy-o

There`s whiskey in the jar-o, yeah

| Em | Em | G | G |

[Outro]

Musha rain dum-a-do dum-a-da
