Gm
I have often told you stories
F
about the way
Gm
I lived the life of a drifter
Dm
waiting for the day
Gm
When I'd take your hand and sing you songs
F
Then maybe you would say
Gm
Come lay with me and love me
Dm D C Bb
And I would surely stay
Bb C Gm
But I feel I'm growing older
Eb F Bb
And the songs that I have sung
D Gm
Echo in the distance
F
Like the sound
Bb Eb D
Of a windmill going round
Cm Dm
Guess I'll always be
Gm
A soldier of fortune.
Solo: Gm C Gm C

Gm
Many times I've been a traveller
F
I looked for something new
Gm
In days of old when nights were cold
Dm
I wandered without you
Gm
But those days I thought my eyes
F
Had seen you standing near
Gm
Though blindness is confusing
Dm D C Bb
It shows that you're not here.
Bb C Gm
Now I feel I'm going older
Eb F Bb
And the songs that I have sung
D Gm
Echo in the distance
F
Like the sound
Bb Eb D
Of a windmill going round
Cm Dm
Guess I'll always be
Gm
A soldier of fortune.
Eb F
Yes, I can hear the sound
Bb Eb D
of a windmill going round
Cm Dm
I guess I'll always be
Gm
a soldier of fortune.
Eb F
I guess I'll always be
G
a soldier of fortune.
