Hal Ketchum - Satisfied Mind Chords

Satisfied Mind
Written by Tony Arata
Recorded by Hal Ketchum

Intro.:  |(Bm)(Em)|(C)(D)|(G)

Many (G)more miles were behind him than he had left to go
Closing (C)in upon that last one that we all must walk alone
It's the (G)one across the end of the line (D)

So we held (G)on and we told stories of the good and bad in all
Of the (C)power and the glory and the lonely days that crawled
And we prayed (G)heaven holds true love (D) and a satisfied mind (G) (Am) (Bm)

(Chorus)
He said, I (C)ain't afraid of dying 'cause I know (D) there's something worse
When you (G)have to see your (Am)reason (Bm)for living (C) go first and you get (D)left behind
Some can't (G)think of nothing better than to (C)live this life forever
I never (G)wanted no more (Bm) than was mine (C)
And to (Bm)lay down someday (Em) and go home (C) with a (D)satisfied mind (G) (D)

He said, don't (G)look into the darkness if you want to see true black
Look in-(C)to a morning's brightness when love ain't coming back
And you will (G)find there is a darkness that blinds (D)

And don't think (G)wealth is ever having all you want all to yourself
It is (C)found when you are giving what you have to someone else
The only (G)difference in the rich and the poor (D) is a satisfied mind (G) (Am) (Bm)

(Chorus)
He said, I (C)ain't afraid of dying 'cause I know (D) there's something worse
When you (G)have to see your (Am)reason (Bm)for living (C) go first and you get (D)left behind
Some can't (G)think of nothing better than to (C)live this life forever
I never (G)wanted no more (Bm) than was mine (C)
And to (Bm)lay down someday (Em) and go home (C) with a (D)satisfied mind (G) (C)

(Tag)
One (D)light began to (C)fade as one grew (Bm)brighter (Am) (Bm)
And he said, I (C)ain't afraid of dying 'cause I know (D) there's something worse
When you (G)have to see your (Am)reason (Bm)for living (C) go first and you get (D)left behind
Some can't (G)think of nothing better than to (C)live this life forever
I never (G)wanted no more (Am) than was (Bm)mine (C)
And to (Bm)lay down someday (Em) and go home (C) (D)
Let me (Bm)lay down someday (Em) and go home, (C) (D) satisfied (G)mind
