I have often told you stories
[F(V)]
About the way
I lived the life of a drifter
Waiting for the day
When I take your hand and sing your song
[F(V)]
Then maybe you would say
Come lay with me love me
And I would surely stay
Chorus:
But 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
I guess I always be a soldier of fortune
Many times I´ve been a traveller
[F(V)]
I looked for something new
In days of old when nights were cold
I wondered without you
Those day I thought my eyes
[F(V)]
Had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that you´re not here
Chorus:
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
I guess I always be a soldier of fortune
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.
