[Verse I:] D F#m And now, the end is near C B And so I face, the final curtain Em G My friend, I'll say it clear A7 I'll state my case D of which I'm certain
D D7 I've lived, a life that's full G I've traveled each Em and every highway D A7 But more, much more than this G D I did it my.. way
D F#m Regrets, I've had a few Am B But then again, too few to mention Em I did, what I had to do A7 And saw it through D without exemption
D D7 I planned, each chartered course G Gm Each careful step, along the byway D A7 But more, much more than this G D I did it my.. way
[Verse II:] D Yes, there were times D7 I'm sure you knew G When I bit off
more than I could chew Em But through it all A7 when there was doubt F#m7 Bm I ate it up, and spit it out Em A7 I faced it all, and I stood tall G D And did it my.. way
[Verse III:] D F#m I've loved, I've laughed and cried Am I've had my fill B7 my share of losing Em And now, as tears subside A7 D I find it all so amusing
D D7 To think, I did all that G Gm And may I say, not in a shy way D A7 Oh no, no not me G D I did it my.. way
D D7 For what is a man, what has he got G If not himself, then he has naught Em A7 To say the things, he truly feels F#m7 And not the words Bm of one who kneels Em A7 The record shows, I took the blows G D And did it my... way
