Let me tell you a story about a man named Jed  
D5                         G5  
A poor mountaineer barely kept his family fed.  
G5                      C5  
Then one day he while shootin' at some food  
D5                                  G5  
Up from the ground came a bubblin' crude.

G5                                 C5             D5  
Well the first thing you know Ole Jed?s a millionaire.  
D5                       G5   
The kinfolk said, ?Jed, move away from there!?  
 G5                           C5  
They said ?Californie is the place that you oughta be!?  
        D5                                          G5   
So they loaded up the truck and they moved to Beverly

Now, it's time to say good-bye to Jed and all his kin.
