[F#m]
[G#m] [D#] I [C#] [F#m]
[C#] [B]
[D#] [C#m] [F#]
[D#] have often told you stories [E] about the way I [F#m] lived the life of a drifter, [C#m] waiting for
the day [F#m] when I'd take your hand and sing you [E] songs.
Maybe you would [F#] say, come lay with me and love me, [C#] and I would surely [C#m]
stay, [A] [E] but [B] I feel
I'm growing [F#m] old.
[D] [Em] All the songs that I have [A] sung [C#] echo in [F#m] the distance, [E] like the sound [A] of a windmill [D] going round.
[C#] [Bm] I guess I'll [C#] always be a soldier [F#] of [B] fortune.
[C#] [E] [F#]
Mmm.
[A] [B]
Mmm.
[C#m] [E] [F#]
[A] [B] Oh, baby, [C#m] [E] [F#]
baby.
[G#m] [A]
[D] [A] [Bm]
[Bm] [F#] [F#m]
Many times I've been a traveler, [E] I look for something new.
In [F#m] days of old, when nights were cold, [C#] I wandered [C#m] without you.
[F#m] But those days I thought my eyes could see [E] you standing near.
[Bm] Though [F#m] blindness is confusing, [C#m] it shows that you're not here.
[B] [A] Now [B] I feel I'm growing [F#m] older.
[E] [D] [E] And all the songs that I have [A] sung [C#]
echo in [F#] the [F#m] distance, [E] like the sound [A] of a windmill going [D] round.
[C#] [Bm] I guess I'll [C#m] always be a soldier [B] of fortune.
[F#m] I can hear the [E] sound [A] of a windmill going [D] round.
[A]
[B] Thank you for your hospitality this evening.
[Bm] I guess I will [C#m] always be a [G#m] soldier of fortune.
