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 I`d take your hand and sing you songs
       F
 Then maybe you would say
 Gm
 Come lay with me and love me
 Dm                      Bass d-c-bb
   And I would surely stay
 
 Bb       C(III)          Gm Bass g-f-bb
   But I feel I`m growing older
             F                Bb
   And the songs that I have sung
    D            Gm
   Echo in the distance
              F
   Like the sound
         Bb              Eb Bass eb-d
   Of a windmill going round
   Cm                Dm
   Guess I`ll always be
                 Gm
   А soldier of fortune.

         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                      Bass d-c-bb
 It shows that you`re not here.

 Bb       C                Gm Bass g-f-bb
   Now I feel I`m going older
             F                Bb
   And the songs that I have sung
    D            Gm
   Echo in the distance
              F
   Like the sound
         Bb              Eb Bass eb-d
   Of a windmill going round
   Cm                Dm
   Guess I`ll always be
                 Gm
   А soldier of fortune.
 
        Gm             F
   Yes, I can hear the sound
          Bb           Eb Bass eb-d
   of a windmill going round
      Cm               Dm
   I guess I`ll always be
                 Gm
   А soldier of fortune.
      Eb         F
   I guess I`ll always be
                 G
   А soldier of fortune.
