	G
	He turned thirty-five last Sunday

	C	G
	In his hair he found some	gray

But he still ain't changed his lifestyle

	C	D
	He likes it better the old	way

	C	G
So he	grows a little garden in the bac	k yard by the fence

	C	G
He's cons	uming what he's growing nowa	days in self defense

	D
He get's	out there in the twilight zone

	C	G
somet	imes when it just don't make no	sense

He gets off on country music

cause disco left him cold

He's got young friends into new wave

buts he's just too damn old

And he dreams at night of Woodstock

and the day John Lennon died

how the music made him happy

and the silence made him cry

Yea he thinks of John sometimes

and he has to wonder why

== Chorus ==

	C
He's an	old hippie

	G
and he d	on't know what to do

	D
should h	ang on to the old

	G
should he g	rab on to the new

	C
he's an o	ld hippie

	G
his new l	ife is just a bust

	D
he ain't	trying to change nobody

	C	D	G
he just	trying real	hard to ad	just

He was sure back in the sixties

that everyone was hip

Then they sent him off to Vietnam

on his senior trip

And they force him to become a man

while he was still a boy

and in each wave of tragedy

he waited for the joy

Now this world may change around him

but he just can't change nomore

== Chorus ==

Well he stays away a lot now

from the parties and the clubs

And he's thinking while he's joggin' 'round

Sure is glad he quit the hard drugs

Cause him and his kind get more endangered everyday

And pretty soon the species

will just up and fade away

Like the smoke from that torpedo

just up and fade away

>>This song sounds best when you alternate between

G and D for the bass on the G-chord; The C and middle

E on the C-Chord; and D and A on the D-chord. Play it

with "boom chuka" rhythm.
