A Satisfied Mind
J. Hayes and J. Rhodes
Key: E
Time: 

[E]How many [B7]times have you [A]heard someone [E]say
If I had his [B7]money [A]I’d do things my [E]way
But little they [B7]know [A]that it’s so hard to [E]find
One rich man in [B7]ten [A]with a satisfied [E]mind

For money can’t [B7]buy back [A]your youth when you're [E]old
Or a friend when you’re [B7]lonely [A]or a heart that's grown [E]cold
The wealthiest [B7]person [A]is a pauper at [E]times
Compared to the [B7]man[A] with a satisfied [E]mind

[E]Once I was [B7]living [A]in fortune and [E]fame
I had all that I [B7]dreamed of [A]to get a start in lifes [E]game
Then suddenly it [B7]happened [A]and I lost every [E]dime
But I'm richer by [B7]far [A]with a satisfied [E]mind
