Gm 

Verse

 
I have  
Gm 
often told you stories
F 
About the way
 
I  
Gm 
lived the life of a drifter
Dm 
waiting for the day
 
When I’d  
Gm 
take your hand and sing you songs
 
Then  
F 
maybe you would say
Gm 
Come lay with me and love me
Dm 
And I would surely stay

Chorus

Bb 
But I  
C 
feel I’m growing  
Gm 
older
Eb 
And the  
F 
songs that I have  
Bb 
sung
D 
Echo in the  
Gm 
distance
 
Like the  
F 
sound
 
Of a  
Bb 
windmill going  
Eb 
round
Cm 
Guess I’ll always  
Dm 
be
 
A soldier of  
Gm 
fortune.

Verse

 
Many  
Gm 
times I’ve been a traveller
 
I  
F 
looked for something new
 
In days of  
Gm 
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 
It shows that you’re not here.

Intro

Verse
I have often told you stories
About the way
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

Chorus
But I feel I’m growing 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.

Chorus
But I feel I’m growing older
And the songs that I have sung

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.
