My Way

 D               F#
And now, the end is near,
         F#m            B7
And so I face the final curtain,
   Dsus4            D  Dsus4
My friend. I'll say it clear,
          D  Dsus4           
I'll stay my case of which I'm 
     D
certain.
     D                   D7
I've lived a live that's full.
            G
I traveled each and every highway,
    D                    A7       
And more, much more than this, I 
      Dsus4  D
did it m___y way.

   D                F#
Regrets, I've had a few,
         F#m               B7
But then again, too few to mention.
  Dsus4          D  Dsus4
I did what I had to do,
           A7             D
And saw it thru without exemption.
  D                      D7
I planned each charted course,
             G
Each careful step along the byway,

    D                    A7       
And more, much more than this, I 
      Dsus4  D
did it m___y way.

               D                   
Yes there were times, I'm sure you 
D7
knew,
           G
When I bit off more than I could 
chew,
            Dsus4              
But thru it all, when there was 
 A7
doubt,
         G               B7
I ate it up, and spit it out.
           Dsus4               A7
I faced it all, and I stood tall,
           Dsus4  D
And did it m___y way.

    D                        F#
I've loved, I've laughed and cried.
            F#m              
I've had my fill; my share of 
   B7
losing.
    Dsus4         D  Dsus4
And now, as tears subside,
D         Dsus4   D
I find it all so  amusing.
     D                 D7
To think I did all that;
             G
And may I say - not in a shy way,
 D             A7
"No, oh no not me,
         Dsus4 D
I did it m___y way".

              D                D7
For what is a man, what has he got?
       G
If not himself, then he has naught.
           Dsus4           A7
To say the things he truly feels;
            G                B7
And not the words of one who kneels.
           Dsus4            A7
The record shows I took the blows -
           Dsus4 D
And did it m___y way!
