[D]
[F#m] [Bm]
[Em]
[A]
And [D] now the end is [F#m] near, and so I [F#] face the final [F#] curtain.
[B] My [Em] friend, I say it clear, [G]
I state my case, [A] of which I am [D]
certain.
I've loved a life that's full, [Am] [D] I've traveled [G]
each and every [Gm]
highway,
[F#m] And more, [Bm] much more than [Em] this, [A] I did it [Em] my
[D] way.
Regrets, I had a [F#m] few, but then [C] again, few to [B] mention.
I [Em] did what I had to [D] do, [G]
and saw it [C#] through, [A]
without [D] exemption.
I planned each chattered [Am] course, [D]
each careful [G] step along the [Gm] highway,
[F#m] And more, much more than [Em] that, [A]
I did it my
[D] way.
Yes, there were times, [D] I'm sure [Am] you knew, when I bit [G] off [G] more than I could chew,
I threw it [Em] all away, when there was [A] doubt, I ate it [F#m] up, and spit it [Bm] out.
I faced it [Em] all, and I stood [A] tall, and did [C#m] it my
[C#] [D] way.
I've loved, I've laughed and [F#m] cried, I've had my [F#] fill, my share [B] of losing,
[B]
[Em] And now, that still [G] subsides, I find it [C#] all [A] so [G] amusing,
[D]
To think, I did all [D] that, and may I [G] say, not in [Gm] a shy way,
Oh [A] no, oh no, not [E] me, [A]
I did [B] it my
[D] way.
For what [G] is a [D] man, what has he [Am] got, if not himself,
[G]
[G] Then he has not to say the [Em] words, he truly [A] feels,
[Am]
In other [F#m] words, one who [Bm] kneels, the record [Em] shows,
I took the [A] blows, and did it [C#m] my [D] way.
[D]
[Am]
[G]
[Dm]
[D] Oh no, oh no, not [A] me, [E]
I did it [G] my [G]
way.
