G minorGm
I have often told you stories
FF
about the way
G minorGm
I lived the life of a drifter
DmDm
waiting for the day
G minorGm
When I'd take your hand and sing you songs
FF
Then maybe you would say
G minorGm
Come lay with me and love me
DmDm D MajorD C majorC 
Bb majorBb
And I would surely stay
Bb majorBb C majorC G minorGm
But I feel I'm growing older
Eb MajorEb FF Bb majorBb
And the songs that I have sung
D MajorD G minorGm
Echo in the distance
FF
Like the sound
Bb majorBb Eb MajorEb D MajorD
Of a windmill going round
C minorCm DmDm
Guess I'll always be
G minorGm
A augmentedA soldier of fortune.

G minorGm
Many times I've been a traveller
FF
I looked for something new
G minorGm
In days of old when nights were cold
DmDm
I wandered without you
G minorGm
But those days I thought my eyes
FF
Had seen you standing near
G minorGm
Though blindness is confusing
DmDm D MajorD C majorC Bb majorBb
It shows that you're not here.
Bb majorBb C majorC G minorGm
Now I feel I'm going older
Eb MajorEb FF Bb majorBb
And the songs that I have sung
D MajorD G minorGm
Echo in the distance
FF
Like the sound
Bb majorBb Eb MajorEb D MajorD
Of a windmill going round
C minorCm DmDm
Guess I'll always be
G minorGm
A augmentedA soldier of fortune.
Eb MajorEb FF
Yes, I can hear the sound
Bb majorBb Eb MajorEb D MajorD
of a windmill going round
C minorCm DmDm
I guess I'll always be
G minorGm
a soldier of fortune.
Eb MajorEb FF
I guess I'll always be
G+G
a soldier of fortune.
