-------------------------------- Deep Purple - Soldier of Fortune (Blackmore/Coverdale) -------------------------------- Key: Gm
Intro: / /
I have often told you stories
I have often told you stories
about the way
I lived the life of a drifter
waiting for the day
When I'd take your hand and sing you songs
Then maybe you would say
Come lay with me and love me
And I would surely stay
But I feel I'm growing 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.
Solo: / / / / / / /
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
Yes, I can hear the sound Bass of a windmill going round
I guess I'll always be
a soldier of fortune.
I guess I'll always be G (major chord) a soldier of foRtune.
