Intro: C 

       C	   Em	 
And now the end is near,  
	 Gm	        A7 
and so I face the final curtain, 
   Dm		       Dm7	 
My friend, 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 dout,  
         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
