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

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.
