Metallica – Whiskey in the Jar

Metallica – Whiskey in the Jar

   G                   Em

As I was goin over the cork and kerry mountains

  C                           G

I saw captain farrell and his money he was countin

                               Em

I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier

       C                        G

I said stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya

      D                       C

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da

Whack for my daddy-o

Whack for my daddy-o

       G                    F Em G F Em G

Theres whiskey in the jar-o

                               Em

I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny

  C                           G

I took all of his money and I brought it home to molly

                             Em

She swore that shed love me, never would she leave me

        C                             G

But the devil take that woman for you know she tricked me easy

[Chorus]

[Solo]

                        Em

Being drunk and weary I went to mollys chamber

C                              G

Takin my money with me and I never knew the danger

                             Em

For about six or maybe seven in walked captain farrell

          C                             G

I jumped up, fired off my pistols and I shot him with both barrels

[Chorus]

    G                            Em

Now some men like the fishin and some men like the fowlin

    C                       G

And some men like ta hear a cannon ball a roarin

                   Em

Me I like sleepin specially in my mollys chamber

    C                           G

But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain yeah
