[A] [C]
As I was going over the [Am] far-faint Kerry mountains, [F] I met with Captain Farrell [C] and his money he was counting.
I first produced me pistol [Am] and I then produced me rapier, Sank [F] stand and deliver for [C] you are a bold deceiver.
Mush [G] a ring dum do dum da, [C] whack all the daddy [F]-o, whack all the [C] daddy-o, there's whiskey in the jar.
I counted out his money [Am] and it made him 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 take the [C] women for they never can be easy.
[G] Mush a ring dum do dum da, [C] whack all the daddy [F]-o, whack all the daddy [Em]-o, there's whiskey [C] in the jar.
I went on to my [Am] chamber all for to take a snumber, [F]
I dreamt of golden jewels [C] and for sure it was no wonder.
But Jenny drew me charger [Am] and she filled him up with water, [F] then sent for Captain Farrell [C] to be ready for the slaughter.
[G] Mush a ring dum do dum da, [C] whack all the daddy [F]-o, whack [C] all the daddy-o, there's [G] whiskey [C] in the jar.
It was early in the morning [Am] just before I rose to travel, [F] up comes a panda [C] footman and like where's 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 must have taken.
Mush [G] a ring dum do dum da, [C] whack all the [F] daddy-o, whack all the daddy-o, [G] there's [C] whiskey in the jar.
Now there's some take the life in the [Am] carriages a-rolling, [F] and others take [C] the life in the Harley and the bowling.
But I take the life [Am] in the juice of the barley and [F] courting pretty [C] fair maids in the morning bright and early.
[G] Mush a ring dum do dum da, [C] whack all the daddy [F]-o, whack all the daddy-o, [G] there's [C] whiskey in the jar.
If anyone can aid [Am] me, it is me brother in the army.
[F] If I can find a station [C] in Cork or in Killarney, and if he'll go with me, [Am] we'll go roaming in Kilkenny.
[F] And I'm sure he'll trade me better than [C] me only sporting jenny.
Mush [G] a ring dum do dum da, [C] whack all the daddy [F]-o, whack all the daddy [Em]-o, there's whiskey [C] in the jar.
