Band: Metallica
Song: Whiskey in the Jar
G
As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains
Em
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'
C
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
G
I said "stand and deliver or the devil he may take you"
G
I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
Em
I took all of his money and I brought it home to Molly
C
She swore that she loved me, no never would she leave me
G
For the devil take that woman for you know she tricked me easy
D
Mush-a rain dum a doo dum a da
C
Whack for my daddy-o
C
Whack for my daddy-o
G
There's whiskey in the jar-o
Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber
Takin' my Molly with me but I never knew the danger
For about six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell
I jumped up, fired off my pistols and I shot him with both barrels
Mush-a rain dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o
Yeah, yeah whiskey!
Now some men like the fishin' and some men like the fowlin'
And some men like ta hear, ta hear a cannon ball a roarin'
Me I like sleepin', 'specially in my Molly's chamber
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain yeah
Mush-a rain dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o
Whiskey in the jar-o
Mush-a rain dum a doo dum a da
Mush-a rain dum a doo dum a da, hey
Mush-a rain dum a doo dum a da
Mush-a rain dum a doo dum a da, heyyy (fading)
Im working on the solo but that is basically the whole song.
