Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]As I was going over
the [Am]Cork and Kerry mountains
I [F]met with Captain Furrow
and his [C]money he was [Am]counting
I [C]first produced me pistol,
[Am]I then produced me rapier, saying
[F]Stand and deliver for you are
a [C]bold deceiver,
musher[G]ing dum -a -doo dum -a -die
[C]Whack for my daddy -o
[F]Whack for my daddy -o
There's [C]whisky [G]in the [C]jar
[G]He counted[C] out his money
An[Am]d it made a pretty penny
I [F]put it in me pocket
And I [C]took [Am]it home to Jenny
She [C]sighed and she swore
[Am]That she never would deceive me
But the [F]devil take the women
For they never [C]can [G]be
[C]Whack for my daddy -o,
[F]Whack for my daddy -o
There's [C]whisky [G]in [C]the jar[F][C][G][C]
I went into me chamber
[Am]On ford to take a slumber
I [F]dreamt of golden jewels
And [C]for sure it was [Am]no wonder
But [C]Jenny drew the charters
[Am]and she filled them up with water
And [F]sent for Captain Farrell
to be [C]ready for the slaughter
Usher[G]ing dum -a -doo dum -a -die
[C]Whack for me daddy -o,
[F]whack for me daddy -o
There's [C]whiskey [G]in [C]the jar[G]
Twice [C]early in the morning
just [Am]before I rose to travel
Up[F]road the men of footmen
and [C]likewise Cap[Am]tain Farrell
I [C]first produced me pistol,
[Am]for she stole away me ringer
But I [F]couldn't shoot the water,
so a [C]prisoner I was takin'
[G]Mush her ring, dum -a -doo,
dum -a -die
[C]Whack for me daddy -o
[F]Whack for me daddy -o,
there's [G]whiskey in the [C]jar
[G]If any[C]one can aid me,
[Am]it's me brother in the army
I [F]know that he is stationed
down in [C]Corcoran, Killar[Am]ney
And [C]if he'd come and join me,
we'd go [Am]rovin' in Kilkenny
I [F]know he'd treat me better
than the [C]old Miss Sporting Jenny
Mush -a [G]-ring dum -a -doo dum -a -die
[C]Whack for me daddy -o,
[F]whack for me daddy -o
There's [C]whisky [G]in the jar
[C]Mus[G]h -a -ring dum
-a -doo dum -a -die
[C]Whack for me daddy -o,
[F]whack for me daddy -o
Now there's [C]whiskey [G]in the [C]jar

[Outro 1]
