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