Jonathan Goes Country version - Chords
E B7 A E
How many times have you heard someone say
B7 A E
If I had his money I'd 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
B7 A E
For money can't buy back your youth when you're old
B7 A E
Or a friend when you're lonely or a heart 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
E B7 A E
Once I was living in fortune and fame
B7 A E
I had all that I dreamed of to get a start in lifes game
B7 A E
Then suddenly it happened and I lost every dime
B7 A E
But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind
Jonathan Goes Country version - Lyrics
How many times have you heard someone say
If I had his money I'd do things my way
But little they know that it's so hard to find
One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind
For money can't buy back your youth when you're old
Or a friend when you're lonely or a heart that's grown cold
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind
Once I was living in fortune and fame
I had all that I dreamed of to get a start in lifes game
Then suddenly it happened and I lost every dime
But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind
G C D7 G
How many ti-mes have you heard someone say
D7 C G
If I had his money I would do things my way
D7 G
But little they know that it's so hard to find
D7 C G
One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind
D7 C G
Once I was living in fortune and fame
D7 C G
I had all that I needed to get a start in life's game
C G D7 G
Then suddenly it hap-pened I lost every dime
D7 C G
But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind
C G D7 G
'Cause money can't buy back your youth when you're old
D7 C G
Or a friend when you're lonely or a love that's grown cold
D7 C G
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times
D7 C G
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind
D7 C G
When my life has ended and my time has run out
D7 C G
My friends and my loved ones will weep there's no doubt
C G D7 G
But one thing's for cer-tain when it comes my time
D7 C G
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind
How many ti-mes have you heard someone say
If I had his money I would 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 living in fortune and fame
I had all that I needed to get a start in life's game
Then suddenly it hap-pened I lost every dime
But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind
'Cause money can't buy back your youth when you're old
Or a friend when you're lonely or a love that's grown cold
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind
When my life has ended and my time has run out
My friends and my loved ones will weep there's no doubt
But one thing's for cer-tain when it comes my time
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind
