I met [G] with Captain Farrow and his [D] money, he was counting.
I first produced my pistol, and [Bm] then produced my rapier.
Stand [G] and deliver, for you [D] are a bold deceiver.
With [A] your ring dum-a-doo dum-a-dah.
[D] Whack for the daddy-o, [G]
whack for the daddy-o, [D] there's whiskey in the jar.
I counted out his money, [Bm] it made a pretty penny.
[G] I put it in my pocket, [D] and I took it home to Jenny.
She swore that she'd love me, [Bm] never would she leave me.
[G] But the devil take that woman, [D] cause you know she tricked me easy.
[A] With your ring dum-a-doo dum-a [D]-dah.
Whack for the daddy [G]-o, whack for the daddy [D]-o, there's [A] whiskey [D] in the jar.
It was early in the morning, [Bm] before I rose to travel.
[G] Up came a band of footmen, [D] and likewise Captain Farrow.
I first produced my [F#] pistol, [Bm] cause she stole away my rapier.
[G] And I couldn't shoot the captain, [D] so a prisoner I was taken.
[A] With your ring dum-a-doo dum-a-dah.
[D] Whack for the daddy [G]-o, whack for the daddy [D]-o, there's [A] whiskey [D] in the jar.
Now some men they like drinking, [Bm] and some men they like fighting.
[G] Some men like to hear the [D] sound of a cannonball a-rolling.
Me, I like sleeping, [Bm]
especially in Jenny's chambers.
[G] Here I am in prison, [D] here I am with a ball and chain.
[A] With your ring dum-a-doo dum-a-dah.
[D]
Whack for the [G] daddy-o, whack for the daddy [D]-o, there's whiskey in the jar.

As I was going over [Bm] the Cork and Kerry mountains.
[G] I met with Captain Farrow, [D] and in money he was counted.
I first produced my pistol, [Bm] and then produced my rapier.
[G] Said, stand and deliver, [D] for you are a bold deceiver.
[A] With your ring dum-a-doo dum-a-dah.
[D] Whack for the daddy [G]-o, whack for the daddy [D]-o, there's [A] whiskey [D] in the jar.
[A] With your ring dum-a-doo dum-a-dah.
[D] Whack for the daddy [G]-o, whack for the daddy [D]-o, there's [A] whiskey in the [D] jar.
