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

[C] [Csus4] [C]

[C]How many [F]times [G]have     you heard someone [C]say,
"If [C]I had his [G]money     I could [F]do things my [C]way."
But [C]little they [G]know    that it's [F]so hard to [C]find
One [C]rich man in [G]ten     with a [F]satisfied [C]mind.

[C]Once I was [G]winning      in [F]fortune and [C]fame;
Every[C]thing that I [G]dreamed of to get a [F]start in lifes [C]game.
But [C]suddenly it [F]happ[G]ened, I lost every [C]dime,
But I'm [C]richer by [G]far   with a [F]satisfied [C]mind.

[C]Money can't [G]buy back    your [F]youth when you're [C]old
Or a [C]friend when you're [G]lonesome or a [F]love that's grown [C]cold;
The [C]wealthiest [G]person   is a [F]pauper at [C]times
Com[C]pared to the [G]man     with a [F]satisfied [C]mind.

[C]When life is [G]over,      my [F]time has run [C]out,
My [C]friends and my [G]loved ones I'll [F]leave, there's no [C]doubt.
But [C]one thing for [F]cer[G]tain, when it comes my [C]time,
I'll [C]leave this old [G]world with a [F]satisfied [C]mind.

[C]How many [F]times [G]have     you heard someone [C]say.
