C (x32010@1)            EmAnd (022000@1)now, the end is near;
         Em7            AAnd (x02220@1)so I face the final curtain.
   Dm (xx0231@1)                Dm7
My friend, I'll say it clear,
              G (320003@1)                CI'll (x32010@1)state my case, of which I'm certain.

     C7I've (x32310@1)lived a life that's full.
              F (133211@1)            DmI've (xx0231@1)traveled each and ev'ry highway;
    C (x32010@1)                  GAnd (320003@1)more, much more than this,
         Dm (xx0231@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C
I did it my way.



  C (x32010@1)               Em (022000@1)Regrets, I've had a few;
          Em7              ABut (x02220@1)then again, too few to mention.
  Dm (xx0231@1)              Dm7
I did what I had to do
           G (320003@1)               CAnd (x32010@1)saw it through without exemption.

C7I (x32310@1)planned each charted course;
             F (133211@1)            Dm7
Each careful step along the byway,
    C (x32010@1)                  GAnd (320003@1)more, much more than this,
         Dm (xx0231@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C
I did it my way.


                C (x32010@1)                 C7Yes, (x32310@1)there were times, I'm sure you knew
           F (133211@1)                   DmWhen (xx0231@1)I bit off more than I could chew.
               Dm7                 GBut (320003@1)through it all, when there was doubt,
         Em7            AmI (x02210@1)ate it up and spit it out.
           Dm7             GI (320003@1)faced it all and I stood tall;
           F (133211@1)CAnd (x32010@1)did it my way.


     C (x32010@1)                     Em (022000@1)I've loved, I've laughed and cried.
            Em7               AI've (x02220@1)had my fill; my share of losing.
    Dm (xx0231@1)             Dm7
And now, as tears subside,
          G (320003@1)      CI (x32010@1)find it all so amusing.

   C7 (x32310@1)    
To think I did all that;
          F (133211@1)            DmAnd (xx0231@1)may I say - not in a shy way,
C (x32010@1)           GNo, (320003@1)oh no not me,
         Dm (xx0231@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C
I did it my way.



              C (x32010@1)              C7For (x32310@1)what is a man, what has he got?
          F (133211@1)               DmIf (xx0231@1)not himself, then he has naught.
           Em7            G7To (320001@1)say the words he truly feels;
            Em7              AmAnd (x02210@1)not the words of one who kneels.
           Dm7              G7The (320001@1)record shows I took the blows -
           F (133211@1)CAnd (x32010@1)did it my way!
