Gm                       F(V)
I have often told you stories about the way
   Gm 
I lived the life of a drifter 
F
waiting for the day
       Gm                       F(V)
When I take your hand and sing your song 
 F(V)
then maybe you would say 
   Gm 
come lay with me love me 
F
and I would surely stay

Chorus:
   Eb       F           Gm      
   Now I see I'm 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 'round
      Cm             Dm              Gm   
   I guess I always be a soldier of fortune

       Gm                    F(V)
Many times I've been a traveller I looked for something new 
   Gm 
In days of old when nights were cold
F
I wondered without you    
       Gm                       F(V)
And day I thought my eyes had seen you standing near       
   Gm 
Thou blindness is confusing
F
It shows that you're not here

Chorus:
   Eb       F           Gm      
   Now I see I'm 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 'round
      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 I'll always be a soldier of fortune.
      Cm             Dm              Gm   
   I guess I'll always be a soldier of fortune.
