[Gm] [Dm]
[C] [Gm]
I have often told you stories [F] about the way
I [Gm] lived a life you'd ripped up, [Dm] waiting for the day
When [Gm] I'd take your hand and sing you songs
[F] And maybe you would say
[Gm] Come lay with me and love me
[Dm] And I would surely stay
[Bb] But [C] I feel I'm growing [Gm] older
And [Eb] [F] the songs that I [Bb] have sung
[D] Have to end [Gm] the distance
[F] Like the sound [Bb] of a wheel pulling [Eb]
round
[Gm] [Cm] Because I'll [Dm] always be a soldier [Gm] of fortune
[C]
[Gm] [C]
[Gm] [Bb]
[C] [Gm]
Many times I've been a traveler
[F] I look for something new
[Gm] In days of old the nights were cold
[Dm] I wandered without you
[Gm] 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
[Bb] Now [C] I feel I'm [Gm] growing older
[Eb] And [F] the songs that I [Bb] have sung
[D] Have to end [Gm] the distance
[F] Like the sound [Bb] of a windmill [Eb] going round
[Gm] [Cm] Because I'll [Dm] always be a soldier [Gm] of fortune
I can hear [F] the sound [Bb] of a windmill [Eb] going round
[Cm] Because I'll [Dm] always be a soldier [Gm] of fortune
[Eb] Because I'll always [F] be a [G] soldier of fortune
