. D Dmaj7
And now, the end is near,
. D7 B7
And so I face the final curtain,
. Em7 Em7/D
My friend. I’ll say it clear,
. Em7/C# A7 D
I’ll state my case of which I’m certain.
. D D7
I’ve lived a live that’s full.
. G Gm
I traveled each and every highway,
. D A Asus4 G D
And more, much more than this, I did it my way.
. D Dmaj7
Regrets, I’ve had a few,
. D7 B7
But then again, too few to mention.
. Em7 Em7/D
I did what I had to do,
. Em7/C# A7 D
And saw it thru without exemption.
. D D7
I planned each charted course,
. G Gm
Each careful step along the byway,
. D A Asus4 G D
And more, much more than this, I did it my way.
. D D7
Yes there were times, I’m sure you knew,
. G Gsus4 G
When I bit off more than I could chew,
. Em A7
But thru it all, when there was doubt,
. F#m Bm7
I ate it up, and spit it out.
. Em A
I faced it all, and I stood tall,
. Asus4 G D
And did it my way.
. D Dmaj7
I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried.
. D7 B7
I’ve had my fill; my share of losing.
. Em7 Em7/D
And now, as tears subside,
. Em7/C# A7 D
I find it all so amusing.
. D D7
To think I did all that;
. G Gm
And may I say not in a shy way,
. D A Asus4 G D
“No, oh no not me, I did it my way”.
. D D7
For what is a man, what has he got?
. G
If not himself, then he has naught.
. Em7 A7
To say the things he truly feels;
. F#m Bm7
And not the words of one who kneels.
. Em7 A Asus4 G D
The record shows I took the blows – And did it my way!
