Satisfied Man

Intro: C F C F C F Dm G

          C             F        
There's somethings you never get 
C   F
over
     C         F       Dm  G
Whatever your parents say
   C         F        C      
First on my list of these three 
     F
things
         Dm                 F
Is the sight of my father walking 
away

 C         F             C    F
Next on my list would be heaven
   C        F            Dm   G
I already know what it's like
      C          F        C      
Cause I fell in love when I was 
F          Dm                    F
16 with the absolute love of my life

  C         F             C     F
Last on my list would be losing
      C      F              Dm   G
But someone always needs to win
       C           F           C 
And thumbing your nose at the 
       F          Dm           
boss I suppose just feels like a 
           F
beautiful thing

            F                    G
And it's something that nobody tells
 you
     Am        G          F   C
You figure it out if you can
              C             F     
Well there's one thing on earth 
    C           F
that no one can touch
           Am         G       F   C
It's the sleep of a satisfied man
           Am         G       F   C
Yeah the sleep of a satisfied man

         C           F        
And I don't know why I love the 
C   F
leaving
          C            F     Dm   G
But it's not from lack of loving you
 C           F           C       
You can't remember when you 
      F          Dm         
stopped breathing and I can't 
          F
remember it too

 C              F      C    F
But I'm coming home tomorrow
    C         F      Dm    G
And I wanted you to know
           C      F           C  
That the part of me that can make
       F           Dm          
 you smile is the same part that 
             F
needed to go


            F                    G
And it's something that nobody tells
 you
     Am        G          F   C
You figure it out if you can
            C        F        C  
Well they can't interfere or get 
         F
inside here
           Am         G       F   C
It's the sleep of a satisfied man
           Am         G       F   C
Yeah the sleep of a satisfied man

 F                              G
Of all the things I've had to learn
            Am
One won't quit
      G       F  C
No matter how I try
            Am
One won't quit
      G             F    C
It's all that I can stand
                 Am
One won't quit
             G              F   C
I'll never learn to say goodbye
       F                         
But I hope for your sake that you 
  G
can

     C        F        C      
And on April 2nd the birth of my 
     F
heart
     C              F     Dm     
The day that the zombie awoke 
      G
with a start
     C             F         C   
When I fell for Button and she 
        F
fell for me
  Dm                    F
Back in the spring of 1993
   C     F  C  F       C        
January 7th 2005 the birth of my
   F           Dm      G
 blood came fully to life
     C           F        C      
When I see St. Peter and ask for 
     F
my wings
       Dm                        
Just leave me that memory and the 
  F
joy that it brings

         F                   G
It's something that nobody tells you
      Am       G          F    C
You figure it out if you can
            C          F           
It's the things that you never get 
C    F
over
            Am               G
Build the character of a man

         F                  
And if heaven and family and 
    G
children
      Am            G         F   C
Are what's left of me when I die
         C            F      
Then I hope for your sake that 
           C          F     
you're better than me at this 
       Am        G   F    C
learning to say goodbye

          F                  
Yeah if heaven and family and 
    G
children
             Am          G        
Are what's left of the race that I
  F   C
 ran
             C      F       
Then I'll quietly slip to the 
       C       F
slumbering peace of the
  Am        G       F    C
sleep of a satisfied man
           Am          G       F C
Yeah the sleep of a satisfied man
          Am           G       F  C
Yeah the sleep of a satisfied man
