Soldier of Fortune

	  		Intro: Gm / F / Eb  
  
        Gm  
I have often told you stories  
I have often told you stories  
F  
about the way  
   Gm  
I lived the life of a drifter  
Dm  
  waiting for the day  
          Gm  
When I'd take your hand and sing you songs  
      F  
Then maybe you would say  
Gm  
Come lay with me and love me  
Dm                      Bass D-C-Bb  
  And I would surely stay  
  
Bb       C                Gm   Bass G-F-Eb  
  But I feel I'm growing older  
            F                Bb  
  And the songs that I have sung  
   D            Gm  
  Echo in the distance  
             F  
  Like the sound  
        Bb              Eb  Bass Eb-D  
  Of a windmill going round  
  Cm                Dm  
  Guess I'll always be  
                Gm  
  A soldier of fortune.  
Solo:  Gm / C / Gm / C /  
       Gm / Bb / C / Gm  
Many times I've been a traveller  
I looked for something new  
In days of old when nights were cold  
I wandered 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.  
  
  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  
       Eb             F  
  Yes, I can hear the sound  
         Bb           Eb Bass Eb D  
  of a windmill going round  
     Cm               Dm  
  I guess I'll always be  
                Gm  
  a soldier of fortune.  
     Eb         F  
  I guess I'll always be  
                G  (major chord)  
  a soldier of fortune.
