[Verse 1]
   C                    Am
As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry Mountains
  F                                C
I met with Captain Farrell and his money, he was countin'
  C                              Am
I first produced me pistols and then produced me rapier
       F                           C
Said, "Stand and deliver!" For he were a bold deceiver

[Chorus]
         G                F C
M'uishe rinne me do amada      Wack fall the daddy-o,
Am F                                  C       G      C
     Wack fall the daddy-o,  there's whiskey in the jar

[Verse 2]
  C                            Am
I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
  F                         C
I put it in my pocket and I brought it home to Jenny
                                  Am
She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me
        F                              C
But the devil take the women, for they never can be easy

[Chorus]
         G                F C
M'uishe rinne me do amada      Wack fall the daddy-o,
Am F                                  C       G      C
     Wack fall the daddy-o,  there's whiskey in the jar
C    F  G

[Verse 3]
  C                         Am
I went into my chamber, all for to take a slumber
  F                                 C
I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was a wonder
                                  Am
For Jenny drew me charges and she filled them up with water
     F                              C
Then sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter

[Chorus]
         G                F C
M'uishe rinne me do amada      Wack fall the daddy-o,
Am F                                  C       G      C
     Wack fall the daddy-o,  there's whiskey in the jar

[Bridge]
C                          Am
Na na na-na-na na-na-na na na naa
                           C
Na na na-na-na na-na-na na na naa
                           Am
Na na na-na-na na-na-na na na naa

[Verse 4]
      C                            Am
T'was early in the morning, just before I rose to travel
   F                           C
Up came a band of footmen, and likewise captain Farrell
                                       Am
So I first produced me pistol, for she stole away me rapier
      F                              C
But I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken

[Chorus]
         G                F C
M'uishe rinne me do amada      Wack fall the daddy-o,
Am F                                  C       G      C
     Wack fall the daddy-o,  there's whiskey in the jar

[Chorus]
         G                F C
M'uishe rinne me do amada      Wack fall the daddy-o,
Am F                                  C       G      C
     Wack fall the daddy-o,  there's whiskey in the jar

[Verse 5]
   C                          Am
If anyone can aid me, it's me brother in the army
   F                         C
If I can find his station in Cork or in Killarney
                                 Am
And if he'll go with me, we'd go rovin' through Killkenney
        F                                 C
And I'm sure he'd treat me better than me darlin' sportin' Jenny

[Chorus]
         G                F C
M'uishe rinne me do amada      Wack fall the daddy-o,
Am F                                  C       G      C
     Wack fall the daddy-o,  there's whiskey in the jar

[Chorus]
         G                        F C
M'uishe rinne me ring um a amada      Wack fall the daddy-o,
Am F                                  C       G      C
     Wack fall the daddy-o,  there's whiskey in the jar

[Chorus]
         G                F C
M'uishe rinne me do amada      Wack fall the daddy-o,
Am F                          N.C.   C       G      C
     Wack fall the daddy-o,  there's whiskey in the jar
