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