Deep Purple - Soldier Of Fortune

Deep Purple - Soldier Of Fortune

[00:14]I have often told you stories
[00:19]About the way
[00:23]I lived the life of a drifter
[00:27]Waiting for the day
[00:30]When I'd take your hand
[00:31]And sing you songs
[00:33]Then maybe you would say
[00:37]Come lay with me love me
[00:40]And I would surely stay

[00:45]But I feel I'm growing older
[00:52]And the songs that I have sung
[00:57]Echo in the distance
[01:00]Like the sound
[01:02]Of a windmill goin' 'round
[01:07]I guess I'll always be
[01:10]A soldier of fortune

[01:43]Many times I've been a traveller
[01:47]I looked for something new
[01:51]In days of old
[01:52]When nights were cold
[01:55]I wandered without you
[01:58]But those days I thougt my eyes
[02:01]Had seen you standing near
[02:05]Though blindness is confusing
[02:09]It shows that you're not here

[02:13]Now I feel I'm growing older
[02:20]And the songs that I have sung
[02:25]Echo in the distance
[02:28]Like the sound
[02:30]Of a windmill goin' 'round
[02:35]I guess I'll always be
[02:38]A soldier of fortune
[02:43]Yes, I can hear the sound
[02:46]Of a windmill goin' 'round
[02:59][02:52]I guess I'll always be
[03:03][02:54]A soldier of fortune
