How many times have you heard someone say,
F# C# B F#
"If I had his money I could do things my way."
F# C# B F#
But little they know that it's so hard to find
F# C# B F#
One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind.
F# C# B F#
Once I was winning in fortune and fame;
F# C# B F#
Everything that I dreamed of to get a start in lifes game.
F# B C# F#
But suddenly it happened, I lost every dime,
F# C# B F#
But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind.
F# C# B F#
Money can't buy back your youth when you're old
F# C# B F#
Or a friend when you're lonesome or a love that's grown cold;
F# C# B F#
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times
F# C# B F#
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind.
F# C# B F#
When life is over, my time has run out,
F# C# B F#
My friends and my loved ones I'll leave, there's no doubt.
F# B C# F#
But one thing for certain, when it comes my time,
F# C# B F#
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind.
F# B C# F#
How many times have you heard someone say.
