[C] As I was going over the [Am] far-famed Kerry mountains, [F] I met with Captain Farrell and [C] his money he was counting.

[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ As I was going over the [Am] far-famed Kerry mountains, [F] I met with Captain Farrell and [C] his money he was counting.
I first produced me pistol and [Am] I then produced me rapier, St.
[F] Stanton, deliver [C] for you are a bold deceiver, [G] musher, in the Luganda.
_ [C] Quack, quack, da-da-dee-oh, [F] quack, quack, da-da-dee-oh, there's whiskey in Luganda.
I counted out his money and [Am] it made a pretty penny, [F] I put it in me pocket [C] and I took it home to Jenny.
She sighed and she swore [Am] that she never would deceive me, [F] but the devil tamed the [C] women for they never can be easy, musher, [G] in the Luganda.
_ Quack, quack, da-da-dee [F]-oh, quack, quack, da-da-dee [Em]-oh, there's whiskey in [C] Luganda.
I went on to my [Am] chamber all for to take a slumber, [F] I dreamt of golden jewels [C] and for sure it was no wonder,
but Jenny drew me [Am] charger and she filled him up with water, [F] then sent for Captain Farrell [C] to be ready for the slaughter, [G] musher, in the Luganda.
[C] _ Quack, quack, da-da [F]-dee-oh, quack, quack, [C] da-da-dee-oh, [Em] there's whiskey in the jar.
It was early in the morning [Am] just before I rose to travel, [F] up comes a panda [C] footman and likewise Captain Farrell.
I first produced me pistol [Am] for she'd stolen away me rapier, [F] but I couldn't shoot the water [C] so a prisoner I was taken, musher, [G] in the Luganda.
_ Quack, quack, da-da-dee [F]-oh, quack, quack, da-da-dee [G]-oh, there's whiskey [C] in the jar.
Now there's some take the light [Am] in the carriages a-rolling, [F] and others take the [C] light in the harley and the bowling,
but I take the light in [Am] the juice of the barley [F] and courting the chief there [C] made in the morning bright and early, [G] musher, in the Luganda.
_ [C] Quack, quack, da-da-dee-oh, [F] quack, quack, da-da-dee [G]-oh, there's whiskey in the jar.
If anyone can aid me, it is me [Am] brother in the army, if [F] I can find a station [C] in Cork or in Killarney,
and if he'll go with me, we'll [Am] go roaming in Kilkenny, and [F] I'm sure he'll treat me better than [C] me only sporting jimmy, [G] musher, in the Luganda.
_ Quack, quack, da-da-dee-oh, [F] quack, quack, da-da-dee-oh, there's whiskey [C] in the jar.
Musher, [G] in the Luganda.
_ Quack, quack, da-da-dee [F]-oh, quack, quack, da-da-dee-oh, there's whiskey [C] in the jar. _
