As I was going over - The Cork and Kerry mountains 
C                       G 
I saw Captain Farrell - And his money he was counting 
G                                Em 
I first produced my pistol - And then produced my rapier 
C                           G 
I said "Stand and deliver - Or the devil he may take you" 

       D                  
Musha rain dum-A-do dum-A-da 
C 
Whack for my daddy- 
C 
Whack for my daddy-o 
G                             G F 
There`s Whiskey in the jar, o 

Em   Em   G   G F 
Em   Em   G   G       

I took all of his money - And it was a pretty penny 
I took all of his money and - I brought it home to Molly 
She swore that she loved me - No Never would she leave me 
But the devil take that woman - For you know she tricked me easy 

Chorus 

Being drunk and weary - I went to Molly`s chamber 
Taking my Molly with me - But I never knew the danger 
For about six or maybe seven - In walked Captain Farrell 
I jumped up, fired my pistols - And I shot him with both barrels 

Chorus 

Now some men like the fishing - And some men like fowling 
And some men like to hear, - To hear the cannonball a-roaring 
Me - I like sleeping - Especially in my Molly`s chamber 
But here I am in prison, - Here I am with a ball and chain, yeah 

Chorus
