Jerry Garcia – Whisky In The Jar (Guitar)

     G                    Em
    As I was a-goin' over Gilgarra mountains

     C                        G                  Em
    I met Colonel Pepper and his money he was counting

     G                          Em
    I drew forth my pistol and I rattled my sabre

     C                         G                 Em
    Saying "stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver"

    D7
    Musha ringum duram da

    G
    Whack fol de daddy-o

    Em
    Whack fol de daddy-o

    G          D          G
    There's whiskey in the jar

The shining yellow coins did sure look bright and jolly I took the money home and I gave it to my Molly She promised and she vowed that she never would deceive me But the devil's in the women for they never can be easy (Chorus) When I awoke between the hours of six and seven Guards were standing 'round me in numbers odd and even I flew to my pistols, but alas I was mistaken I fired off my pistols and a prisoner was taken (Chorus) They put me in jail without a judge or jury For robbing Colonel Pepper in the morning so early They didn't take my fist so I knocked down the sentry And I bid a long farewell to that cold penitentiary (Chorus) Some take delight in fishing and bowling Others take delight in carriage a-rollin' I take delight in the juice of the barley Courting pretty women in the morning so early (Chorus)
