[F#m]
[C#m] [B]
[F#m] I have often told you stories [E] about the way
I [F#m] lived the life of a crypter, [C#m] waiting for the day
[F#m] When I take your hand and sing you [E] songs, maybe you would say
[F#m] Come lay with me and love [C#m] me, I wish you would stay
[A] But [B] I feel I'm growing [F#m] older
[D] And [E] the songs that [A] I have [C#] sung, everywhere [F#m] in the distance
[E] Like the sound [A] of a windmill [D] blowing round
[F#m] I [Bm] guess [C#m] I'll always be a [F#m] soldier of fortune
[B] [F#m]
[B] [F#m]
[A] [B]
[F#m] And in times of being a traveler, [E] I look for something new
[F#m] In days of old and nights of [C#m] cold, I wandered without you
[F#m] Those days I thought my [E] eyes could see and you're standing near
[F#m] Though blindness is confusing, [C#m] it shows that you're not [A] here
Now [B] I feel [F#m] I'm growing older
[D] And [E] the songs that [A] I have sung, [C#] echo [F#m] in the distance
[E] Like the sound [A] of a windmill [D] blowing round
[F#m]
[Bm] I guess I'll [C#m] always be a [F#m] soldier of fortune
Like the [E] sound [A] of a windmill [D] blowing round
[F#m] [Bm] I guess I'll [C#m] always be a [F#m] soldier of fortune
[D] I guess I'll [C#m] always be a [F#] soldier of fortune
