And n ow the end is near
B♭m6onC＃ C7
And so I face t he final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case of w hich I'm c ertain
I've l ived a life that's fu ll
I'v e travelled e ach and e very highway
E♭onB♭ FmonB♭
And more , much more than this
I did it my way
Regr ets, I've had a few
B♭m6onC＃ C7
But then again to o few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through withou t exempt io n
I pl anned each chartered cour se
E♭7-9 G＃ G＃aug FmonG＃ G＃M7 Fm7-5
Eac h careful st ep alon g the by-way
E♭onB♭ FmonB♭
And more , much more than this
I did it my way
Ye s, there were t imes, I'm sure you knew
When I bit o ff more than I could chew
But through it all when there was d oubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all
And I stood tall
And did it my w ay
I've l oved, I've laughed and cried
B♭m6onC＃ C7
I've had my fill, my share of losing
And now, as tears subsi de
I find it all so amu- s ing
To t hink I did all that
E♭7-9 G＃ G＃aug FmonG＃ G＃M7 Fm7-5
And may I s ay, not in a shy way
E♭onB♭ FmonB♭
Oh, no, no not me
I did it my way
B♭7 E♭ GmonB♭ B♭m6onC＃ C＃dimonE♭
Fo r what is a m an, what has he got
If not hims elf, then he has na ught
To say the things he truly fe els
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my w ay
E♭ GmonD／C＃onE♭ E♭7-9／G＃ G＃aug／G＃m G＃m6／
Yes, it was my w ay
