Whiskey In The Jar Chords by The Highwaymen

[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
As I was going over _ [Cm] Kilgara Mountain, [Ab] I met with Captain Farrell and [Eb] his [Bb] money [Eb] he was counting.
_ [Ab] First I drew my pistol [Eb] and I [Gm] rattled forth [Cm] my saber, [Gm] _
[Ab] saying,
Stand and deliver, [Cm] for I am [Bb] your bold [Cm] receiver.
_ _ [Bb] Musha ringa ringa,
_ [Eb] _ Raffol de de de [Ab] yo,
Raffol de de de [Eb] yo,
There's whiskey in the [Cm] jar.
_ [Eb] _
_ [Cm] _ [Eb] He counted out his money, [Cm] and it made a pretty penny.
[Ab] I took the money home [Eb] and I gave it [Cm] to my Jenny.
[Ab] She cried and she swore [Eb] that she never [Cm] would deceive me.
[Ab] But the devil is in the women, [Eb] and the never [Cm] will be easy.
[Bb] Musha ringa ringa,
_ [Eb] _
Raffol de de de [Ab] yo,
Raffol de de de [Eb] yo,
There's whiskey in the jar. _ _ _ _
_ Early in the morning, [Cm] between the hours of six and seven,
[Ab] The guards were standing round [Eb] me in numbers [Cm] odd and even.
[Ab] I flew to my pistols, [Eb] but alas, I [Cm] was mistaken,
[Ab] For Jenny wept the potter [Cm] and the prisoner I was taking.
[Bb] Musha ringa ringa,
_ [Eb] _ Raffol de de de [Ab] yo,
Raffol de de de yo,
[Eb] There's [Bb] whiskey [Eb] in the jar.
_ _ _ _ _ I think I'll find my brother, [Cm] the one that's in the army.
[Ab] I don't know where he's stationed, is [Eb] it Cork or [Cm] in Killarney?
[Ab] Together we'll go roaming [Eb] in the mountains [Cm] of Kilkenny.
[Ab] And I dare he'll treat me fairer [Eb] than my darling's [Cm] fortune Jenny.
[Bb] Musha ringa ringa,
_ [Eb] _ Raffol de de de [Ab] yo,
Raffol de de de [Eb] yo,
There's whiskey in the jar.
_ _ _ _ _ Some take delight [Cm] in fishing and a bowling,
[Ab] Others take delight [Eb] in the [Cm] carriage rolling,
[Ab] But I take delight [Eb] in the juice [Cm] of the barley.
[Ab] A-courting pretty girls [Eb] in the [Cm] morning so early,
[Bb] Musha ringa ringa,
_ [Eb] _ Raffol de de de [Ab] yo,
Raffol de de de [Eb] yo,
There's whiskey in the jar.
[Bb] Musha ringa ringa,
_ _ [Eb] Raffol de de de [Ab] yo,
Raffol de de de [Eb] yo,
There's whiskey in the jar.
[Bb] Musha ringa ringa,
_ [Eb] _ Raffol de de de [Ab] yo,
Raffol de de de yo,
[Eb] There's whiskey in the jar. _ _ _
