Intro : C
C Em
And now the end is near
Gm A7
And so I face the final curtain
Dm F
My friends, I'll say it clear
G7 C
I'll state my case of which I'm certain.
C7
C7
I've lived a life that's full
F Fm
I've travelled each and every highway
C G7
And more, much more than this
Fm C G
I did it my way
C Em
Regrets I've had a few
Gm A7
But then again too few to mention
Dm F
I did what I had to do
G7 C
And saw it through without exemption.
C7
C7
I planned each charted course
F Fm
Each careful step along the byway
C G7
And more, much more than this
Fm C G
I did it my way
Reff :
C
Yes, there were times
C7
I'm sure you knew
F
When I bit off more than I could chew
Dm G7
But through it all when there was doubt
Em E Am
I ate it up and spit it out
Dm G7
I faced it all and I stood tall
Fm C G
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 F
And now, as tears subside
G7 C
I find it all so amusing.
C7
C7
To think I did all that
F Fm
And may I say, not in a shy way
C G7
Oh no. Oh no, not me
Fm C
I did it my way
Reff 2 :
G C
For what is a man
For what is a man
C7
What has he got
F
If not himself then he has naught
Dm G7
To say the things he truly feels
Em E Am
And not the words of one who kneels
Dm G7
The record shows I took the blows
Fm C
And did it my way
Musik : C...Am...Dm...G7...Em...A
Dm Fm C
Yes, it was my way
