[Verse]
C Am As I was a-goin' over Gilgarra mountains F C Am I met Colonel Pepper and his money he was counting F C Am I drew forth my pistol and I rattled my sabre F C Am Saying "stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver"
[Chorus]
G7 Musha ringum duram da C C7 Whack fol de daddy-o F Whack fol de daddy-o C G C There's whiskey in the jar
[Verse]
C Am The shining yellow coins did sure look bright and jolly F C Am I took the money home and I gave it to my Molly F C Am She promised and she vowed that she never would deceive me F C Am But the devil's in the women for they never can be easy
[Chorus]
G7 Musha ringum duram da C C7 Whack fol de daddy-o F Whack fol de daddy-o C G C There's whiskey in the jar
[Verse]
C Am When I awoke between the hours of six and seven F C Am Guards were standing 'round me in numbers odd and even F C Am I flew to my pistols, but alas I was mistaken F C Am I fired off my pistols and a prisoner was taken
[Chorus]
G7 Musha ringum duram da C C7 Whack fol de daddy-o F Whack fol de daddy-o C G C There's whiskey in the jar
[Verse]
C Am They put me in jail without a judge or jury F C Am For robbing Colonel Pepper in the morning so early F C Am They didn't take my fist so I knocked down the sentry F C Am And I bid a long farewell to that cold penitentiary
[Chorus]
G7 Musha ringum duram da C C7 Whack fol de daddy-o F Whack fol de daddy-o C G C There's whiskey in the jar
[Verse]
C Am Some take delight in fishing and bowling F C Am Others take delight in the carriage a-rollin' F C Am I take delight in the juice of the barley F C Am Courting pretty women in the morning so early
[Chorus]
G7 Musha ringum duram da C C7 Whack fol de daddy-o F Whack fol de daddy-o C G C There's whiskey in the jar
