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

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