Darby O'Gill – Whiskey In The Jar chords

[Verse 1]
   C                    AmAs I was going over the far-famed Kilgarry Mountains
  F                                C             GI met with Captain Ferrel, and his money he was counting
     C                           AmSo I produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
        E                      CSaying: Stand and deliver, for I'm your bold deceiver


  [Chorus]
            G     Mush a ring um a dor uma da
     C     Wack fol the daddy-o
     F     Wack fol the daddy-o,
             C       G      C     there's whiskey in the jar


[Verse 2]
  C                            AmI counted up his money, and it made a pretty penny
  F                         C               GI put it in my pocket and I took it home to Jenny
     C                           AmShe vowed and she swore that she never would deceive me
        E                             CBut the divil take the women for they never can go easy


  [Chorus]
            G     Mush a ring um a dor uma da
     C     Wack fol the daddy-o
     F     Wack fol the daddy-o,
             C       G      C     there's whiskey in the jar


[Verse 3]
   C                        AmI went in to my chamber all for to take my slumber
   F                               C             GI dreamed of gold and jewels, and sure it was no wonder
     C                             AmFor Jenny stole my charges and she filled them up with water
    E                              CAnd sent for Captain Ferrel to be ready for my slaughter


  [Chorus]
            G     Mush a ring um a dor uma da
     C     Wack fol the daddy-o
     F     Wack fol the daddy-o,
             C       G      C     there's whiskey in the jar


[Verse 4]
    C                    AmAs I rose up next morning it surly did astound me
  F                                C             GFor there was Captain Ferrel, and his guards were all around me
     C                           AmSo I produced my pistols, for she'd stolen away my rapier
        E                      CBut I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken


  [Chorus]
            G     Mush a ring um a dor uma da
     C     Wack fol the daddy-o
     F     Wack fol the daddy-o,
             C       G      C     there's whiskey in the jar


[Verse 5]
           C                           AmWell they took me to jail with neither judge nor writin'
     F                            C            GFor robbin' Captain Ferrel up on Kilgarry Mountain
         C                          AmBut they didn't take me fists, so I knocked the jailer down
     E                            CAnd bade a fond farewell to that jail in Sligo town


  [Chorus]
            G     Mush a ring um a dor uma da
     C     Wack fol the daddy-o
     F     Wack fol the daddy-o,
             C       G      C     there's whiskey in the jar


[Verse 6]
        C                           AmNow if any one can aide me it's me brother in the army
       F                                     C              GBut I don't know where he's stationed; is it Cork, or in Kilarney
  C                              AmTogether we'd go roamin' in the mountains in Kilkenny
        E                                  CAnd I'm sure he'd treat me better than me darlin', sportin' Jenny


  [Chorus]
            G     Mush a ring um a dor uma da
     C     Wack fol the daddy-o
     F     Wack fol the daddy-o,
             C       G      C     there's whiskey in the jar


[Verse 7]
     C                            AmNow some men take delight in the hurlin' and the bowlin'
    F                             C           GAnd others take delight in their carriages a rollin'
        C                             AmBut me, I take delight in the juice of the barley
     E                            CAnd courtin' pretty fair maids in the mornin' bright and early


  [Chorus]
            G     Mush a ring um a dor uma da
     C     Wack fol the daddy-o
     F     Wack fol the daddy-o,
             C       G      C     there's whiskey in the jar
