D G D
He turned thirty-five last Sunday in his hair he found some gray
A7
But he still ain't changed his lifestyle he likes it better the old way
G D
So he grows a little garden in the back yard by the fence
G D A7
He's consuming what he's growing now-a days in self defense
D
He gets out there in the twilight zone
G D
Sometimes when it just don't make no sense
G D
He gets off on country music cause disco left him cold
A7
He's got young friends in a new wave but he's just too damn old
G D
And he dreams at night of Woodstock and the day John Lennon died
G D A7
How the music made him happy and the silence made him cry
D G D
Yeah he thinks of John sometimes and he has to wonder why
G D
He's an old hippie and he don't know what to do
A7 D
Should he hang on to the old should he grab on to the new
G D
He's an old hippie his new life is just a bust
A7 G A7 D
He ain't trying to change nobody he just trying real hard to adjust
G D
He was sure back in the sixties that everyone was hip
A7
Then they sent him off to Vietnam on his senior trip
G D
And they forced him to become a man while he was still a boy
G D A7
And behind each wave of tragedy he waited for the joy
D G D
Now this world may change around him but he just can't change no more
Repeat #3
G D
Well he stays away a lot now from the parties and the clubs
And he's thinking while he's jogging around
A7
Sure is glad he quit the hard drugs
G D
Cause him and his kind get more endangered everyday
G D A7
And pretty soon the species will just up and fade away
D G D
Like the smoke from that torpedo just up and fade away
Repeat #3
