C                     Am 
As I was going over the Cork and Kerry mountains 
   F                                C 
I met with Captain Farrell and his money he was counting 
                               Am 
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier 
        F                          C 
Saying “stand and deliver for you are a bold receiver” 



           G 
With your ring dum a doo dum a da 
C 
Whack fol de daddio 
F 
Whack fol de daddio 
         C      G       C 
There’s whiskey in the jar 


verse 2:

There’s whiskey in the jar
