Verse
G
He turned thirty-five last Sunday,
C G
In his hair he found some gray
But he still ain't changed his lifestyle,
D
He likes it better the old way
C
So he grows a little garden
G
in the back yard by the fence
C
He's consuming what he's growing
G D
nowadays in self defense
G
He get's out there in the twilight zone
C G
Some times when it just don't make no sense
[Verse 2]
G
He gets off on country music,
C G
cause disco left him cold
He's got young friends into new wave,
D
buts he's just too friggin old
C
And he dreams at night of Woodstock
G
and the day John Lennon died
C
how the music made him happy,
G D
and the silence made him cry
G
Yeah he thinks of John sometimes
C G
and he has to wonder why
[Chorus]
C
He's an old hippie
G
and he don't know what to do
D
should he hang on to the old
G
should he grab on to the new
C
he's an old hippie
G
his new life is just a bust
D
he ain't trying to change nobody
C D G
he just trying real hard to adjust
[Verse 3]
G
He was sure back in the sixties
C G
that everyone was hip
Then they sent him off to Vietnam
D
on his senior trip
C
And they force him to become a man
G
while he was still a boy
C
and in each wave of tragedy
G D
he waited for the joy
G
Now this world may change around him
C G
but he just can't change no more
[Chorus]
C
He's an old hippie
G
and he don't know what to do
D
should hang on to the old
G
should he grab on to the new
C
he's an old hippie
G
his new life is just a bust
D
he ain't trying to change nobody
C D G
he just trying real hard to adjust
[Verse 4]
G
Well he stays away a lot now
C G
from the parties and the clubs
And he's thinking while he's joggin' 'round
D
Sure is glad he quit the hard drugs
C G
Cause him and his kind get more endangered everyday
C
And pretty soon the species
G D
will just up and fade away
G
Like the smoke from that torpedo
C G
just up and fade away
[Outro]
C
He's an old hippie
G
and he don't know what to do
D
should hang on to the old
G
should he grab on to the new
C
he's an old hippie
G
his new life is just a bust
D
he ain't trying to change nobody
C D G
he just trying real hard to adjust
