Introdução: C (2x)
C Em Gm6 A7
And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain
Dm Dm7 G7 C
My friend, I'll say it clear, I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
C7 F Fm6
I've lived a life that's full, I've traveled each and ev'ry highway
C G7 F6 C
And more, much more than this, I did it my way
C Em Gm6 A7
Regrets, I've had a few, but then again, too few to mention
Dm Dm7 G7 C
I did what I had to do, and saw it through without exemption
C7 F Fm6
I planned each charted course, each careful step along the byway
C G7 F6 C
But more, much more than this, I did it my way
C
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
C7 F
When I bit off more than I could chew
Dm7 G7 Em7
But through it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up and spit it out
Am Dm7 G7 F6 C
I faced it all and I stood tall, and did it my way
C Em Gm6 A7
I've loved, I've laughed and cried, I've had my fill; my share of losing
Dm Dm7 G7 C
And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing
C7 F Fm6
To think I did all that, and may I say not in a shy way
C G7 F6 C
'No, oh no not me, I did it my way'
C C7 F
For what is a man, what has he got, if not himself, then he has naught
Dm7 G7 Em7
To say the things he truly feels, and not the words of one who kneels
Am Dm7 G7 F6 C
The record shows I took the blows, and did it my way
