Deep Purple - Soldier of Fortune
(Blackmore/Coverdale)
"Stormbringer" (1974)
[Intro]
Gm Dm C Gm
[Verse]
Gm
I have often told you stories
F
About the way
Gm
I lived the life of a drifter
Dm
Waiting for the day
Gm
When I'd take your hand and sing you songs
F
Then maybe you would say
Gm
Come lay with me and love me
Dm
And I would surely stay
[Chorus]
Bb C Gm
But I feel I'm growing older
Eb F Bb
And the songs that I have sung
D Gm
Echo in the distance
F
Like the sound
Bb Eb
Of a windmill going round
Cm Dm
Guess I'll always be
Gm
A soldier of fortune.
[Solo]
Gm C Gm C
Gm Bb C Gm
[Verse]
Gm
Many times I've been a traveller
F
I looked for something new
Gm
In days of old when nights were cold
Dm
I wandered without you
Gm
But those days I thought my eyes
F
Had seen you standing near
Gm
Though blindness is confusing
Dm
It shows that you're not here.
[Chorus]
Bb C Gm
But I feel I'm growing older
Eb F Bb
And the songs that I have sung
D Gm
Echo in the distance
F
Like the sound
Bb Eb
Of a windmill going round
Cm Dm
Guess I'll always be
Gm
A soldier of fortune.
Gm F
Yes, I can hear the sound
Bb Eb
of a windmill going round
Cm Dm
I guess I'll always be
Gm
a soldier of fortune.
Eb Dm7
I guess I'll always be
G
a soldier of fortune.

Chords to Know:

I've seen this song tabbed quite a few times, but I've never seen the
right chords displayed for standard tuning. These chords are correct.
I've compared them with the album version, and they sound identical.
So here it is. Once again, I stress that these are the chords if you
want to play the song without a capo. Listen to the album version of
the song for the strumming pattern. It isn't hard to figure out.

A hundred days have made me older
A Bm G A
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face

They dissapear now, when I'm dreaming of your face
[Chorus]

And tonight, there's only you and me, yeah
[Verse 2]

The miles just keep rollin'
