Soldier Of Fortune
Deep Purple
Intro: 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 Bass -- And I would surely stay Bass -- But I feel I’m growing older And the songs that I have sung Echo in the distance Like the sound Bass - 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 Bass -- It shows that you’re not here Bass -- But I feel I’m growing older And the songs that I have sung Echo in the distance Like the sound Bass - 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 (major chord) A soldier of fortune
