[Verse]

C Am

As I was going over - The Cork and Kerry Mountains

F C

I saw Captain Farrell - And his money he was counting

C Am

I first produced my pistol - And then produced my rapier

F C

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

| Am | Am | C | C | x2

C Am

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

F C

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

C Am

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

F C

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

| Am | Am | C | C | x2

[Verse]

C Am

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

F C

Taking Molly with me - But I never knew the danger

C Am

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

F C

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]

C Am

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

F C

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

C Am

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

F C

But here I am in prison - Here I am 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

| Am | Am | C | C |

[Outro]

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