Intro: C    

       C	   Em	    
And now the end is near,     
	 Gm	        A7    
and so I face the final curtain.    
   Dm		       Dm7	    
My friends, 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 Fm when I bit off more than I could chew, Dm7 G But thru it all, when there was doubt, 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.
