Whiskey In The Jar Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]As [D]I was going over the
[Bm]Cork and Kerry mountains,
I [G]met with Captain Farrell
and his [D]money he was counting.
I first produced my pistol
and [Bm]then produced my rapier,
said [G]stand and deliver for you
[D]are the ball receiver.
Musha [A]ring -a -da -doo -da -da
[D]Like for my daddy -o,
[G]like for my daddy -o
There's [D]whiskey [A]in the [D]jar
I counted out his money
and it [Bm]was a pretty penny
I [G]put it in my pocket
for to [D]take it home to Jenny
She sighed and she swore
she [Bm]nev er would deceive me
But the [G]dimmer will take the women
sure they [D]never can be easy
Musha [A]ring -a -da -doo -da -da
[D]Like for my daddy -o,
[G]like for my daddy -o
Oh, there's [D]whisky [A]in the [D]jar
I went into my chambers
All [Bm]far to take some slumber
I [G]dreamt of gold and silver
And [D]sure it was no wonder
For Jenny drew me charges
And she [Bm]filled them up with water
And [G]sent for Captain Fowl
To be [D]ready for the
slaughter
And the shudder[A]ing of a dude and a dad
[D]Like fowl and a daddy -o
[G]Like fowl and a daddy -o
There's [D]whisky [A]in the [D]jar
It was early the next morning
Before [Bm]I rose to travel,
up [G]came a band of footmen,
and [D]likewise Captain Farrell
I first produced my raker,
and I [Bm]then produced my pistols
But I [G]couldn't shoot the water,
so a [D]prisoner I was taken [A]for sure
[D]Back for my daddy -o,
[G]back for my daddy -o,
there's [D]the ski [A]and the [D]jet
If anyone can save me,
it's me [Bm]brother and the army
If [G]I could only find Tim and
[D]Cocker and Killarney
And if he'd come and free me,
we'd go [Bm]rovin' in Kilkenny
I'm [G]sure he'd treat me better than
me [D]darlin' Spartan Jenny
Me sure [A]in the middle of the day
[D]Like father, daddy, oh
[G]Like father, daddy, oh
There's [D]whiskey in the jar
Now some take the light
in the [Bm]football and the hurlin'
And [G]more take the light
in the [D]cannonball and rollin'
But I take the light and
the [Bm]juice of the burn
I'm [G]courtin' picky fair maids
in the [D]mornin' bright and early
Ma sure, [A]dum -a -loo, dum -a -daddy [D]-o
Back for my daddy -o
[G]Back for my daddy -o
There's [D]whisky in the jar
Ma [A]sure, dum -a -loo, dum -a -daddy -o
[D]Back for my daddy -o
[G]Back for my daddy -o
There's [D]whisky [A]in the [D]jar
