G5 Em
As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains
C5 G5
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'
G5 Em
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
C5 G5
I said "stand and deliver or the devil he may take you"
G5 F#5 Em G5 F#5 Em C5
G5 Em
I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
C5 G5
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
C5 G5
For the devil take that woman for you know she tricked me easy

Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber

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