Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)


Verse 1:

  C           Am
As I was a goin' over the far famed Kerry mountains
F                 C
I met with Captain Farrell and his money he was counting
F                C
I first produced my pistol and I then produced my rapier
Am*        F*      G*       Am*
Saying "stand and deliver" for he were a bold deceiver

Chorus:

Whack for my daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

Verse 2:

 C             Am
I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny
F              C
I put it in me pocket and I took it home to Jenny
F               C
She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me
Am*        F*      G*        Am*
But the devil take the women for they never can be easy

Verse 3:

 C           Am
I went up to my chamber, all for to take a slumber
F                C
I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure 't was no wonder
F               C
But Jenny drew me charges and she filled them up with water
Am*          F*      G*      Am*
Then sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter

Chorus:

    G
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da

There's whiskey in the jar

Verse 4:

 C               Am
'Twas was early in the morning, just before I rose to travel
F               C
Up comes a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrell
F               C
I first produced me pistol for she stole away me rapier
Am*         F*     G*       Am*
I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken

Chorus:

    G
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
C*      G*
Whack for my daddy-o
F
Whack for my daddy-o
    C    G   C
There's whiskey in the jar

Verse 5:

C               Am
Now there's some take delight in the carriages a-rollin'
F               C
And others take delight in the hurling and the bowling
F             C
But I take delight in the juice of the barley
Am*         F*        G*         Am*
And courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early

Chorus:

    G
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
C*      G*
Whack for my daddy-o
F
Whack for my daddy-o
    C    G   C
There's whiskey in the jar

Verse 6:

C             Am
If anyone can aid me 't is my brother in the army
F              C
If I can find his station in Cork or in Killarney
F               C
And if he'll go with me, we'll go rovin' through Killkenny
Am*        F*       G*           Am*
And I'm sure he'll treat me better than my own a-sporting Jenny

Chorus:

    G
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
C*      G*
Whack for my daddy-o
F
Whack for my daddy-o
    C    G   C
