Soldier of Fortune

I have often told you stories about the way.

Gmi Dmi

I lived the life of a drifter waiting for the day.

When I'd take your hand and sing you songs. Then maybe you would say.

Come lay with me and love me and I would surely stay.

(R:)

But I feel I'm growing older

and the songs that I have sung, Echo

in the distance like the sound. Of a windmill goin' 'round.

Cmi Dmi Gmi

I guess I'll always be A soldier of Fortune.

Many times I've been a traveller I looked for something new.

Gmi Dmi

In days of old. When nights were cold. I wondered without you.

But those days I thought my eyes had seen you standing near.

Though blindness is confusing, it shows that you're not here.

(R:)

Now I feel I'm growing older

and the songs that I have sung, Echo

in the distance Like the sound. Of a windmill goin' 'round.

Cmi Dmi Gmi

I guess I'll always be A soldier of Fortune.

Yes, I can hear the sound, Of a windmill goin' 'round.

Cmi Dmi Gmi

I guess I'll always be A soldier of Fortune.

I guess I'll always be A soldier of Fortune.
