                             Whiskey In The Jar - Jerry Garcia and David Grisman
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: Standard

C                     Am
As I was a-goin' over Gilgarra mountains
  F                          C            Am
I met Colonel Pepper and his money he was counting
  F                          C          Am
I drew forth my pistol and I rattled my sabre
        F                        C            Am
Saying "stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver"


CHORUS:
G                  G7
Musha ringum duram da
C
Whack fol de daddy-o
F
Whack fol de daddy-o
        C       G      C
There's whiskey in the jar


The shining yellow coins did sure look bright and jolly
I took the money home and I gave it to my Molly
She promised and she vowed that she never would deceive me
But the devil's in the women for they never can be easy

-CHORUS-

When I awoke between the hours of six and seven
Guards were standing 'round me in numbers odd and even
I flew to my pistols, but alas I was mistaken
I fired off my pistols and a prisoner was taken

-CHORUS-

They put me in jail without a judge or jury
For robbing Colonel Pepper in the morning so early
They didn't take my fist so I knocked down the sentry
And I bid a long farewell to that cold penitentiary

-CHORUS-

Some take delight in fishing and bowling
Others take delight in carriage a-rollin'
I take delight in the juice of the barley
Courting pretty women in the morning so early
