Deep Purple - Soldier of Fortune
(Blackmore/Coverdale)
From "Stormbringer" (1974)
--------------------------------
Key: Gm

Intro: Am / G / F

        Am
I have often told you stories

I have often told you stories
G
about the way
   Am
I lived the life of a drifter
Em
  waiting for the day
          Am
When I'd take your hand and sing you songs
      G
Then maybe you would say
Am
Come lay with me and love me
Em                      Bass E-D-C
  And I would surely stay


C       D                Am   Bass A-G-F
  But I feel I'm growing older
            G                C
  And the songs that I have sung
   E            Am
  Echo in the distance
             G
  Like the sound
        C              F  Bass F-E
  Of a windmill going round
  Dm                Em
  Guess I'll always be
                Am
  A soldier of fortune.

Solo:  Am / D / Am / D /
       Am / C / D / Am
     Am
Many times I've been a traveller
G          
I looked for something new
Am
In days of old when nights were cold
Em
I wandered without you
Am
But those days I thought my eyes
    G
Had seen you standing near
Am
Though blindness is confusing
Em
It shows that you're not here.

C       D                Am   Bass A-G-F
  But I feel I'm growing older
            G                C
  And the songs that I have sung
   E            Am
  Echo in the distance
             G
  Like the sound
        C              F  Bass F-E
  Of a windmill going round
  Dm                Em
  Guess I'll always be
                Am
  A soldier of fortune.

       F             G
  Yes, I can hear the sound
         C           F Bass F-E
  of a windmill going round
     Dm               Em
  I guess I'll always be
                Am
  a soldier of fortune.
     F         G
  I guess I'll always be
                G  (major chord)
  a soldier of foRtune.
