Satisfied Mind
Recorded by Randy Travis
Written by Tony Arata

C
Many more miles were behind him than he had left to go
        F
Closing in upon that last one we all must walk alone
         C                         G7
It's the one across the end of the line
           C
So we held on and we told stories of the good and bad in all
       F
Of the power and the glory and the lonely days that crawled
        C                 G7                   C
He said heaven holds true love and a satisfied mind

          F                             G7
He said I ain't afraid of dying cause I know there's something worse
         C                Dm     C   F
When you have to see your reason for livin' go first
            G7                     C
And you get left behind some can't think of nothing better
        F                              C                       F
Than to live this life forever I never wanted no more than was mine
       Em           Am      C  F           G7        C
And to lay down someday and go home with a satisfied mind

G7            C
He said don't look into the darkness if you want to see true black
     F
Look into a morning's brightness when love ain't coming back
         C                                G7
You will find right there a darkness that blinds
                C
And don't think wealth is ever having
                                   F
All you want all to yourself it is found when you are giving

What you have to someone else
         C                              G7                  C
The only difference in the rich and the poor is a satisfied mind

        G7             F                Em
And one light began to fade as one grew brighter
            F
And he said I ain't afraid of dying
        G7
Cause I know there's something worse
         C                           F
When you have to see your reason for livin' go first
            G7
And you get left behind

           C
Some can't think of nothing better
        F
Than to live this life forever
        C                       F
I never wanted no more than was mine
       Em           Am      C  F   G7
And to lay down someday and go home
       Em           Am         F
Let me lay down someday and go home
       G7        C
With a satisfied mind
