Old Hippie 20 years later
G C G
He'll be fifty five this weekend, can't believe he's lived this long,
C D
But now he hangs out with the grand-kids, instead of toking on his bone,
C G
He still thinks about the crazy days but thanks his God above,
C G D
That he traded in the loving for a greater kind of love,
Bm C G
He still shoots from that old peace sign, still gentle as a dove.
G C G
He loves all kinds of music, country rock with a little roll,
C D
But nowadays he's partial too, the melodies that saved his soul,
C G
Life has put him through the wringer friends have fallen through the cracks,
C G D
And all the trips he's taken have been to hell and back,
Bm C G
He don't feel that cool no more, but he don't care and that's a fact.
[Chorus]
C G
He's an old hippie, getting older every day,
D G
But his eyes are on the prize and his faith ain't gonna stray,
C G
He's an old hippie he knows what his life is for,
D C D G
Trying to get right with the man before he goes, knocking on heavens door.
G C G
He's been confused about the issues, from Vietnam to Desert Storm,
C D
But he prays every night for, the guys and gals in uniform,
C G
He ain't trying to convert you just glad for your new start,
C G D
And he won't be preaching to you like some born again old fart,
Bm C G
He'll just tell you about the love he's found, deep within his heart.
[Chorus]
C G
He's an old hippie, getting older every day,
D G
But his eyes are on the prize and his faith ain't gonna stray,
C G
He's an old hippie he knows what his life is for,
D C D G
Trying to get right with the man before he goes, knocking on heavens door.
G C G
Well he skips the crowds and the gatherings, Spends some quiet time alone,
C D
His family is his universe, and heaven is his home,
C G
He's seen and done it all been in the belly of the whale,
C G D
He's looked the devil in the eye and sent him back to hell,
Bm C G
He thanks dear Jesus every day, that he's lived to tell the tale.
[Chorus]
C G
He's an old hippie, getting older every day,
D G
But his eyes are on the prize and his faith ain't gonna stray,
C G
He's an old hippie he knows what his life is for,
D C D G
Trying to get right with the man before he goes, knocking on heavens door.
[Outro]
D C D G
Just trying to get right with the man before he goes, knocking on heavens door.
