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