D
Jack O' Diamonds Jack O' Diamonds and I know you of old
A7 D
You've robbed my poor pockets of silver and gold
Whiskey you villain you've been my downfall
A7 D
You've kicked me you've cuffed me but I love you for all
It's a whiskey rye whiskey whiskey I cry
A7 D
If I don't get rye whiskey well I think I will die
ooooh ahhhhh ooooh
A7 drunken yell hiccuping
D drunken yell
It's a beefsteak when I'm hungry rye whiskey when I'm dry
A7 D
A greenback when I'm hard up it's a heaven when I die
I'll go to yonder holler and I'll build me a still
A7 D
Give you a gallon for a five dollar bill
It's a whiskey rye whiskey whiskey I cry
A7 D
If a tree don't fall on me I'll live till I die
ooooh ahhhhh ooooh
A7 drunken yell hiccuping
D drunken yell
slower tempo and less strumming
If the ocean was whiskey and I was a duck
A7 D
I'd dive to the bottom and never come up
back to normal tempo
But the ocean ain't whiskey and I ain't a duck
A7 D
I'll play Jack O' Diamonds just to much ha ha ha
Whiskey rye whiskey whiskey I cry
A7 D
Whiskey don't kill me I'll live till I die
ooooh ahhhhh ooooh
A7 drunken yell hiccuping
D drunken yell
