A        D     E        E7            A 
How many times have you heard someone say? 
             E    E7       D            A 
if I had his money I could do things my way 
                E   E7         D          A 
But little they know that it's so hard to find 
                E  E7      D         A
[Verse]
A          D   E      E7          A 
Once I was winning in fortune and fame 
                  E          E7         D               A 
Everything that I dreamed for to get a start in life's game, 
                 E       E7  D          A 
Then suddenly it happened, I lost every dime. 
                  E  E7      D         A 
But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind.

            D   E         E7                A 
Money can't buy back your youth when you're old 
                        E     E7    D                 A 
or A friend when you're lonely or a love that's grown cold. 
               E     E7    D         A 
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times 
                E  E7      D         A 
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind.
[Verse]
                E    E7       D            A 
When my life is ended, and my time has run out 
                  E    E7         D                A 
My friends and my loved ones will weep, there's no doubt. 
                  D   E            E7       A 
But one thing for certain, when it comes my time 
                E        E7      D         A 
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind.

How many times have you heard someone say?

if I had his money I could do things my way 
                E   E7         D          A 
But little they know that it's so hard to find 
                E  E7      D         A    E E7 A 
One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind.
