Intro: Gm Dm C Gm 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 Iʼd take your hand and sing you songs F Then maybe you would say Gm Come lay with me and love me Dm And I would surely stay Bb C Gm But I feel Iʼm growing older F Bb And the songs that I have sung D Gm Echo in the distance F Like the sound Bb Eb Of a windmill going round Cm Dm Guess Iʼll always be Gm А soldier of fortune. Gm C Gm C Gm Bb C Gm Gm Many times Iʼve 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 It shows that youʼre not here. Bb C Gm Now I feel Iʼm going older F Bb And the songs that I have sung D Gm Echo in the distance F Like the sound Bb Eb Of a windmill going round Cm Dm Guess Iʼll always be Gm А soldier of fortune. Gm F Yes, I can hear the sound Bb Eb of a windmill going round Cm Dm I guess Iʼll always be Gm А soldier of fortune. Eb F I guess Iʼll always be G А soldier of fortune.
