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

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