As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains

I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier

Bb Bb F F
I said "stand and deliver or the devil he may take you"



F F Dm Dm Bb Bb F F


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

Bb Bb F F
I took all of his money and I brought it home to Molly

She swore that she loved me, no never would she leave me

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

Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber

Bb Bb F F
Takin' my Molly with me but I never knew the danger

For about six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell

Whack for my daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar-o
Now some men like a fishin' but some men like the fowlin'
Some men like to hear, to hear the cannonball roarin'
But 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
B B > > > > Bb Bb
Musharainabemadumb-da! Whack for my daddy-o
Bb Bb
Whack for my daddy-o F F Dm Dm
Whack for my daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar-o

Chords are correct, but not lined up even close to correct. Space em out properly and I will approve.
