Gm I have often told you stories F About the way Gm I lived the life of a drifter F Waiting for the day Gm When I take your hand and sing your song F Then maybe you would say Gm Come lay with me love me F And I would surely stay Chorus: Eb F Gm But I feel Iʼm going older Eb F Ab And the songs that I have sung Db Gm Echo in the distance F Db Eb Like the sound of a windmill going ʼround Cm Dm Gm I guess I always be a soldier of fortune Gm Many times Iʼve been a traveller F I looked for something new Gm In days of old when nights were cold F I wondered without you Gm Those day I thought my eyes F Had seen you standing near Gm Though blindness is confusing F It shows that youʼre not here Chorus: Eb F Gm Now I feel Iʼm going older Eb F Ab And the songs that I have sung Db Gm Echo in the distance F Db Eb Like the sound of a windmill going ʼround Cm Dm Gm I guess I always be a soldier of fortune F Db Eb Yes, I can hear the sound of a windmill going round Cm Dm Gm I guess Iʼll always be a soldier of fortune. Cm Dm Gm I guess Iʼll always be a soldier of fortune.
