Topic: never cared to much for hippies by selso for southpaw

Here ya go:
G                                    C                G
Well, I never tought I'd ever love a hippie
G                    D                            G
I never really thought about it to long
G                                     C                G
See, I never thought I'd ever love a hippie
G                                   D                             G
But a hippie girl's what made me write this song

Chorus:
C                              D               G
Sure some time she smells like pouchli
C                                D                        G
Yeah and maybe her arm pit hairs too long
C                            D                            G          F#  Em
See, I never really cared too much for hippies
C                                  D                             G
But a hippie girls what made me write this song

Well I used to get mad when she played the Greatful Dead

But now I've learned to hum a tune or two

And now she got me singing all sorts of country songs

when I used to play punk rock all day long

chorus
sure some times she smells like pouchli
and maybe her armpit hairs to long
I never thought I'd ever love a hippie
but a hippie girls what made me write this song
C                     D                    G             F#      Em     
If she had her way she'd be bare foot every day
C                        D                             G
And a hippie girl made me write this song

Everything is bad including me
But being bad is good policy

Played it for a bunch of fishermen when we were standing around at night under a tarp during a ferocious rain.  Not much fishing going on.  A fair bit of drinking.  The song went over very well!  I played it with a country/folk strum style.
