satisfied mind chords
the byrds ( red hayes and jack rhodes )

E B7 A E
how many times have you heard someone say?
B7 A E
if i had his money i could do things my way
B7 A E
but little they know that it’s so hard to find
B7 A E
one rich man in ten with a satisfied mind .

E B7 A E
once i was winning in fortune and fame
B7 A E
everything i could wish for to get a start in life’s game ,
B7 A E
then suddenly it happened , i lost every dime .
B7 A E
but i’m richer by far with a satisfied mind .

B7 A E
money won’t buy back your youth when you’re old
B7 A E
a friend when you’re lonely or a love that’s grown cold .
B7 A E
the wealthiest person is a pauper at times
B7 A E
compared to the man with a satisfied mind .

B7 A E
when my life is over , my time has run out
B7 A E
my friends and my loved ones will weep , there’s no doubt .
B7 A E
but one thing’s for certain , when it comes my time
B7 A E
i’ll leave this old world with a satisfied mind .
