Capo 2

         A                         D                             A
He’ll be forty-five come Wednesday and his grey hair is getting’ thin
         A                                                  E
But he’s still hangin’ in there, don’t feel too bad for the shape he’s in
          D                                 A
He’s seen yuppies in the White House but he thinks they’re gonna fail
         D                                 A           E
Cause he just don’t trust a President that never has inhaled
       A                                D                   A
And he prays to God to stop this crime, but it seems to no avail


Well, he still loves country music but he’s been left out in the dark
Cause they don’t play Merle and George no more, he don’t know Billy Ray from Garth
And he’s hear of Woodstock II but it never could compete
Cause he was there the day that Hendrix played the Anthem with his teeth
Back when all those grunge bands, couldn’t even keep a beat



Chorus:
        D                A
He's an old hippie, even older than before
          E                            A             
Wonderin’ what to pay attention to and what should he ignore
        D                   A
He's an old hippie, still adjusting to the change
          E                               D     D/C#  D/B  D/A   A 
He’s just tryin to find some balance in a world gone  totally  insane


He still thinks back on the Sixties but not in the same way
Cause they built a wall to his war then forgot the MIA’s
And he’s tryin’ to be a 90’s man but it’s too much of a bore
Cause fax machines and cell phones ain’t what he was put here for
And in a world selling sex and youth he’s the last old dinosaur

Chorus

Well he comes on home from work now to take some time up with the kids
Tryin’ to teach them right from wrong, hope they don’t learn it the way he did
And his eyes are on the future but it’s lookin’ pretty sad
And with everyday that passes he becomes more like his Dad
He hopes that when this century turns around things won’t look so bad

Chorus

He’s just tryin to find some balance in a world gone totally insane
