[G] [A] [Gm] [Bb]
As I was going over [Gm] the Kilgarry mountain, [Eb] Met with Captain Fuddle [Bb] and his money he was counting.
First produced me pistol, [Gm] then produced me rapier, [Eb] Then stunned and delivered [Bb] for I am a bold deceiver.
[F] Pushed out in a drum-a-da, [Bb] Whack-ball a daddy [Eb]-o, Whack-ball a daddy [Bb]-o, There's whiskey in the jar.
I counted out his money, [Gm] it made a pretty penny, [Eb] I put it in me [Bb] pocket and I took it home to Jenny.
She sighed and she swore [Gm] she never would betray [Eb] me, Or the devil take the women, [Bb] for they never can be easy.
[F] Pushed out in a drum-a-da, [Bb] Whack-ball a daddy [Eb]-o, Whack-ball a daddy-o, [Bb] There's whiskey in the jar.
I went up to me chambers to [Gm] get a little slumber, [Eb] Damped up gold and jewel, [Bb] I'm sure it was no wonder.
Jenny took me charges, she [Gm] filled them up with [Eb] water, Sent for Sergeant Puppet, [Bb] he'll be ready at the slaughter.
[F] Pushed out in a drum-a-da, [Bb] Whack-ball a daddy [Eb]-o, Whack-ball a daddy-o, [Bb] There's whiskey in the jar.
It was early in the morning [Gm]
and I arose to trouble, [Eb] Upped him upon the guards, [Bb] and likewise Sergeant Puddle.
I went for me [Gm] pistols, I couldn't shoot the water, [Eb] I hit him with me banjo, [Bb] until every guy was taken [F] for shoving.
Pushed out in a drum-a-da, [Bb] Whack-ball a daddy-o, [Eb] Whack-ball a daddy-o, [Bb] There's whiskey in the jar.
Some take the light [Gm] in the fishing and the roaring, [Eb] Others take the light in [Bb] the football and the hurling.
But I take my delight in the [Gm] juice of the barley, [Eb] And courting pretty women [Bb] in the morning bright and early.
Pushed [F] out in a drum-a-da, [Bb] Whack-ball a daddy [Eb]-o, Whack-ball a daddy [Bb]-o, I'll sing it one more time.
[F] Pushed out in a drum-a-da, [Bb] Whack-ball a daddy-o, [Eb] Whack-ball a daddy [Bb]-o, There's whiskey in the jar.
