G F Em G F Em G
Em
As I was goin' over, the Cork and Kerry mountains
C
I saw Captain Farrell
G
And his money he was countin'
I first produced my pistol
Em
And then produced my rapier
C G
I said "Stand or deliver, or the devil he may take ya"
D
Musha ring dumb a do dumb a da
C
Whack for my daddy-o
G
Whack for my daddy-o, There's whisky in the jar-o
G F Em G F Em G
Em
I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
C
I took all of his money
G
And I brought it home to Molly
She swore that she'd love me
Em
Never would she leave me
C
But the devil take that woman
G
For you know she tricked me easy
D
Musha ring dumb a do dumb a da
C
Whack for my daddy-o
G
Whack for my daddy-o, There's whisky in the jar-o
G F Em G F Em G
Em
Being drunk and weary, I went to Molly's chamber
C
Takin' my Molly with me
G
And I never knew the danger
For about six or maybe seven
Em
In walked Captain Farrell
C
I jumped up, fired off my pistols
G
And I shot him with both barrels
D
Musha ring dumb a do dumb a da
C
Whack for my daddy-o
G
Whack for my daddy-o, There's whisky in the jar-o
G F Em G F Em G
Now some men like the fishin'
Em
And some men like the fowlin'
C G
And some men like to hear a cannon ball a roarin'
Em
Me? I like sleepin', Especially in my Molly's chamber
C
But here I am in prison
G
Here I am with a ball and chain, yeah
D
Musha ring dumb a do dumb a da
C
Whack for my daddy-o
G
Whack for my daddy-o, There's whisky in the jar-o
G F Em G F Em G

Beautiful song!! I've never heard it before!! But it looks like classical thing! thanks for the enlightenment!!

Thank you! Yes, this song is a traditional Irish song. Thin Lizzy gave it this rock arrangement in the 70's. Metallica also did a version in the 90's. It is great that people can still discover it today 😊
