[Intro]
A
[Verse 1]
E7 A
Jason Kelly always had some moonshine whiskey
D E7 A
And he'd drink and ride out on the courthouse lawn
D E7 D A
The only shirt he ever wore was an old blue checkered one
B7 E E7
With the elbows and the left front pocket gone
A E7 A
Jason was a living local legend
D E7 A
As a kid, I heard his story all my life
D E7 D A
Ollie Sims, who ran the bank, had cheated him to death
B7 E E7
And how Homer Gray had stolen away his wife
A E7 A
But Jason had a hardy sense of humor
D E7 A
And us kids hung 'round him back of Slim's Café
D E7 D A
For hours, he'd entertain us and we'd laugh until we would cry
E7 A
When he'd wink at us half-jokingly and say
[Chorus]
D A D A
"What this town needs is a few good funerals
D E7 A
That seems to be the only time folks care
D E7 A F#m
What this town needs is a few good funerals
D E7 A
And a few more good people here and there"
E7 A
[Verse 2]
E7 A
Jason Kelly died stone-drunk on bootleg whiskey
D E7 A
And I watched them put him in a pauper's grave
D E7 D A
A man, so Daddy said, who had the world and lost it all
B7 E E7
But a man nobody ever tried to save
A E7 A
But they never laughed with Jason like us kids did
D E7 A
Why, the things he said would tickle us to death
D E7 D A
They never noticed friendly lurking in those lonely eyes
E7 A
Couldn't see beyond the bourbon on his breath
[Chorus]
D A D A
This town still needs a few good funerals
D E7 A
That seems to be the only time folks care
D E7 A F#m
This town still needs a few good funerals
D E7 A
And a few more good people here and there
D E7 A F#m
This town still needs a few good funerals
D E7 A
And a few more good people here and there
