Chords:
Whiskey In The Jar VerseC AmAs I was going over the cork and Kerry mountains,F CI met with Captain Farrel and his money he was counting.AmI first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier,F CSaying 'Stand and deliver for you are my bold deceiver'.ChorusGMusha ring dum a doo dum a daCWhack fol the daddy o,FWhack fol the daddy o,C G CThere's whiskey in the jar.C AmHe counted out his money and it was a pretty pennyF CI put it in my pocket and I took it home to JennyAmShe sighed and she swore that never would she leave meF CBut the devil take the women for they never can be easyChorus:C AmI went into my chamber all for to take a slumber,F CI dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder.AmBut Jenny drew my charges, she filled them up with water,F CShe sent for Captain Farrel to be ready for the slaughter.Chorus:C Am'Twas early in the morning, just before I rose to travelF CUp comes a band of troopers likewise Captain FarrelAmI then produced my pistol for she stole away my rapierF CBut I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was takenChorus:C AmNow there's some take delight in the carriages a rollingF Cand others take delight in the hurling and the bowlingAmbut I take delight in the juice of the barleyF Cand courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and earlyChorus:C AmIf anyone can help me, it's my brother in the army,F CIf I can find his station be it Cork or in Killarney.AmAnd if he'd come and join me, we'd go roving in Kilkenny.F CAnd i'm sure he'll treat me better than my own a-sporting Jenny.Chorus: (repeat twice)
