[E]
So you [B] want to jump off your trick [E] bag, ease on into your bag, [Bm]
you ain't just excited,
you [E] was here when you started to let your hair grow, spend big bucks to cop your wardrobe,
somehow you know there's [Bm] much more to the trip.
[E] What is hip?
Tell me, tell me, [C] if you think you know.
[Gm] What [E] is hip?
If you're really hip, [B] you're passing [B] the year for sure.
[D] You in a hip trip, maybe hipper than hip.
What is hip?
[C#] [Dm]
[G] [D]
[C#] [E] [Em]
You became a part of the new breed, [A] been smoking [E] only the best weed,
hanging out on so-called hip-hip sets, been seen in all the right places,
seen with just the right faces, should [Bm] be satisfied, but still it ain't [G] quite [E] right.

Tell me, tell me, [C] if you think you know.
[G] What [E] is hip?

[B] Sometimes, what it is, let it be [E] done.
What it is, let [B] it be done.
What it is, let it be done.
Sometimes, what it is, what you hate, [Em]
you went and found you a guru,
in an effort to find you a new you, and [E] maybe even managed to raise your conscious level.
While you're striving to find the right road, there's one thing you [Bm] should know.
What's hip today, might become past day.
[E] What is hip?
Tell me, tell me, if you [C] think you know.
[G] What [E] is hip?
If you're really [Am] hip, you're passing the [B] year for sure.
