And now the end is near,
Gm A7
and so I face the final curtain,
Dm Dm7
My friend, I’ll say it clear,
G7 C
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain
C C7
I’ve lived a life that’s full,
F Fm
I traveled each and every highway,
C G F C
And more, much more than this, I did it my way
C Em
Regrets, I’ve had a few,
Gm A7
but then again, too few to mention,
Dm Dm7
I did what I had to do,
G7 C
and saw it thru without exemption,
C C7
I planned each chartered course,
F Fm
each carefull step along the by way
C G F C
And more, much more than this, I did it my way
C C7
Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew,
F
when I bit off more than I could chew,
Dm7 G
But thru it all, when there was dout,
Em Am
I ate it up, and spit it out
Dm7 G F C
I faced it all, and I stood tall, and did it my way
C Em
I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried,
Gm A7
I’ve had my fill, my share of losing
Dm Dm7
And now, as tears subside,
G7 C
I find it all so amusing
C C7
To think I did all that,
F Fm
and may I say, "Not in a shy way”
C G F C
Oh no, oh no, not me, I did it my way
C C7
For what is a man, what has he got,
F
if not himself, then he has not
Dm7 G
To say the things he truly feels,
Em Am
And not the words of one who kneels
Dm7 G F C
The record shows I took the blows, and did it my way
Dm7 G F C
The record shows I took the blows, and did it my way
