C        G7   F                       C
How many times have you heard someone say?

             G7   F                     C
if I had his money I could do things my way

                G7  F                     C
But little they know that it's so hard to find

                G7 F                 C
One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind.

C          G7    F                C
Once I was winning in fortune and fame

                   G7  F                             C
Everything I could wish for to get a start in life's game,

                 G7      F              C
Then suddenly it happened, I lost every dime.

                  G7 F                 C
But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind.

            G7      F                       C
Money won't buy back your youth when you're old

                     G7   F                        C
A friend when you're lonely or a love that's grown cold.

               G7    F               C
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times

                G7 F                 C
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind.

                G7  F                 C
When my life is over, my time has run out

                  G7       F                       C
My friends and my loved ones will weep, there's no doubt.

                    G7     F                  C
But one thing's for certain, when it comes my time

                G7       F                 C
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind.
