[Intro]
|G |D |
[Verse 1]
D Bm As I was going over the far famed Kerry mountain G D Bm I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting. D Bm I first produced my pistol, and then I drew my sabre G D Bm Said stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver,
[Chorus]
A Musha ringum durm'da D Whack for the daddy 'ol G Whack for the daddy 'ol D There's whiskey in the jar
[Verse 2]
Bm I counted out his money, and it made a pretty penny. G D Bm I put it in my pocket and I took it home to Jenny. D Bm She said and she swore, that she never would deceive me, G D Bm But the devil take the women, for they never can be easy
[Chorus]
A Musha ringum durm'da D Whack for the daddy 'ol G Whack for the daddy 'ol D There's whiskey in the jar
[Verse 3]
Bm I went up to my chamber, all for to take a slumber, G D Bm I dreamt of gold and jewels, boys and sure it was no wonder. D Bm But Jenny took my charges and she filled them up with water, G D Bm Then sent for captain Farrel to be ready for the slaughter.
[Chorus]
A Musha ringum durm'da D Whack for the daddy 'ol G Whack for the daddy 'ol D There's whiskey in the jar
[Verse 4]
Bm Next day just as I was leavin', was early in the mornin' G D Bm The captain and his soldiers came at me without warnin' D Bm I then produced my pistol, she stole away my sabre G D Bm I couldn't shoot the water so a prisoner I was taken
[Chorus]
A Musha ringum durm'da D Whack for the daddy 'ol G Whack for the daddy 'ol D There's whiskey in the jar
[Verse 5]
Bm I'd like to find my brother, he's the one that's in the army G D Bm I don't know where he's stationed, is it Cork or in Killarney? D Bm Together we'll go ridin' o'er the mountains of Kilkenny G D Bm Oh, I know he'll treat me better than my darlin' sportin' Jenny
[Chorus]
A Musha ringum durm'da D Whack for the daddy 'ol G Whack for the daddy 'ol D There's whiskey in the jar
[Instrumental]

A Musha ringum durm'da D Whack for the daddy 'ol G Whack for the daddy 'ol D There's whiskey in the jar
[Verse 6]
Bm There's some delight in fishin' and some delight in bowlin' G D Bm And some take delight in their carriages a-rollin' D Bm But I take delight in the juice of the barley G N.C. And courtin' pretty girls in the mornin' bright and early
[Chorus]
A Musha ringum durm'da D Whack for the daddy 'ol G Whack for the daddy 'ol D There's whiskey in the jar
[Chorus]
A Musha ringum durm'da D whack for the daddy 'ol G whack for the daddy 'ol D There's whiskey in the jar
