[B]
He'll be 45 come Wednesday
[E] His gray hair is getting [B] thin
But he's still hanging in there
Don't feel too [F#] bad for the shape.
He's in
He's [E] seen yuppies in the White House, but [B] it makes their gonna fail
But [E] he just don't trust the president [B] that never has [F#] in hand and [B] he prays to God to stop this crime
[E] But it seems to know [B] a thing
Well, he's still up country music
[E] He's been left out in the [B] dark
Cuz they don't play Merle and George no more.
He don't know Billy Ray [F#] from God
And [E] he's heard of Woodstock too, but [B] it never could compete
He [E] was there the day that Hendrick [B] played the anthem with [F#] his team
[B] Back when all those grunge bands
[E] Couldn't even [B] keep a beat
[E] He's an old
Hippie [B] even older than before
[F#] Wondering what to pay attention to [B] and what should he ignore?
[E] He's an old
Hippie [B] still adjusting to the change.
He [F#] is trying to find some balance [E] in a [B] world [C#m] gone [A#m] totally [B] insane
He still thinks back on the 60s
[E] But not in the [B] same way
They built a wall through his war
Then forgot the [F#] MIA
And [E] he's trying to be a nice man, [B] but too much of a boy
[E] House packs machines and cell phones ain't [B] what he was put [F#] here for and [B] in a world selling sex and youth
[E] He's the last old [B] man.
So
[E] He's an old
[B] Even older than before
[F#] Wondering what to pay attention to [B] and what should he ignore?
[E] He's an old
Hippie [B] still adjusting to the change.
He [F#] just trying to find some balance [E] in a [D#m] world [C#m] gone [A#m] totally [B] insane
Well, he comes on home from work now
[E] Take some time up with [B] the kids
Try to teach them right from wrong.
Hope they don't learn it the [F#] way that he did
And [E] his eyes are on the future
But [B] it's looking pretty sad [E] and with every day that passes he [B] becomes more [F#] like a sad
Hope [B] said when this century turned [E] around
Things won't be [B] so bad
[E] He's an old
Hippie [B] even older than before
[F#] Wondering what to pay attention to [B] and what should he ignore?
[E] He's an old
[B] Still adjusting to the change.
He [F#] just trying to find some balance [E] in a [D#m] world [C#m] gone [A#m] totally [B] insane
He just [F#] trying to find some balance [E] in a [C#m] world gone [A#m] totally [B] insane
