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