I have often told you stories about the way
Gm
I lived the life of a drifter
F(1)
waiting for the day
When I take your hand and sing your song then maybe you would say
Come lay with me love me 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
Many times I´ve been a traveller
I looked for something new
In days of old when nights were cold
I wondered without you
And day I thought my eyes
had seen you standing near
Thou blindness is confusing
It shows that you´re not here
Now I feel I´m going older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill going round
Guess I´ll always be
A soldier of fortune
Yes, I can hear the sound
of a windmill going round
I guess I´ll always be
a soldier of fortune.
I guess I´ll always be
a soldier of fortune.
