D F#mi
And now the end is near
Ami H7
And so I face the final curtain
Emi Emi7
My friend, I'll say it clear
A7 D
I'll state my case of which I'm certain
D Dmi7 D7
I've lived a life that's full
G Gmi
I've travelled each and every highway
D A7
And more, much more than this
G D
I did it my way
D Dmi7
Regrets, I've had a few
Ami H7
But then again, too few to mention
Emi Emi7
I did what I had to do
A7 D
And saw it through without exemption
D Dmi7 D7
I planned each charted course
G Gmi
Each careful step along the byway
D A7
And more, much more than this
G D
I did it my way
[Refrão]
A D Dmi7 D7
Yes there were times, I'm sure you knew
G Gmi
When I bit off more than I could chew
Emi7 A7
But through it all when there was doubt
F#mi Hmi
I ate it up and spit it out
Emi7 A7
I faced it all, and I stood tall
G D
And did it my way
D Dmi7
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
Ami H7
I've had my fill, my share of loosing
Emi Emi7
And now as tears subside
A7 D
I find it all so amusing
D Dmi7 D7
To think I did all that
G Gmi
And may I say, not in a shy way
D A7
Oh, no, oh, no not me
G D
I did it my way
[Refrão]
A D Dmi7 D7
For what is a man, what has he got
G Gmi
If not himself, then he has naught
Emi7 A7
To say the things, he truly feels
F#mi Hmi
And not the words of one who kneels
Emi7 A7
The record shows, I took the blows
G D
And did it my way
(A D Dmi7 Am7 D7 G Gmi D F#mi/C# Hmi )
A G D
Yes, it was my way
