DD7M
And now the end is near
Am6/CB4B7
And so I face the final curtain
EmEm7
My friend, I'll say it clear
A7D
I'll state my case of which I'm certain
DD7MD7(9)D7(9-)
I've lived a life that's full
GGm6
I've travelled each and every highway
DA7
And more, much more than this
GD
I did it my way
DD7M
Regrets, I've had a few
Am6/CB4B7
But then again, too few to mention
EmEm7
I did what I had to do
A7D
And saw it through without exemption
DD7MD7(9)D7(9-)
I planned each charted course
GGm6
Each careful step along the byway
DA7
And more, much more than this
GD
I did it my way
[Refrão]
ADD7MD7
Yes there were times, I'm sure you knew
GG7M
When I bit off more than I could chew
Em7A7
But through it all when there was doubt
F#m7Bm7
I ate it up and spit it out
Em7A7
I faced it all, and I stood tall
GD
And did it my way
DD7M
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
Am6/CB4B7
I've had my fill, my share of loosing
EmEm7
And now as tears subside
A7D
I find it all so amusing
DD7MD7(9)D7(9-)
To think I did all that
GGm6
And may I say, not in a shy way
DA7
Oh, no, oh, no not me
GD
I did it my way
[Refrão]
ADD7MD7D7(9-)
For what is a man, what has he got,
GG7M
If not himself, then he has naught,
Em7A7
To say the things, he truly feels,
F#m7Bm7
And not the words of one who kneels
Em7A7
The record shows, I took the blows,
GD
And did it my way
(ADD7MAm7D7(9-)GGm6DF#m/C#Bm7 )
AGD
Yes, it was my way
