3 6 3 6 -5 6
And now, the end is near;
3 6 -5 6 -5 6 -5 -5 5*
And so I face the fi-nal cur-tain.
-3 -6 -3 -6 6 -6
My friend, I’ll say it clear,
-3 -6 6 -6 7 7 -5 -6 6
I’ll state my case, of which I’m cer-tain.
-6* 7 -6* 7 -7 7
I’ve lived a life that’s full.
-7 6 7 -6 -6 -6 6 7 -6
I trav-eled each and ev-‘ry high-way;
-6 6 3 -6 6 -5
And more, much more than this,
-4 5 -5 -5 5
I did it my way.
3 6 3 6 -5 6
Re-grets, I’ve had a few;
3 6 -5 6 -5 6 -5 -5 5*
But then a-gain, too few to men-tion.
-3 -6 -3 -3 -6 6 -6
I did what I had to do
-3 -6 6 -6 7 7 -5 -6 6
And saw it through with-out ex-emp-tion.
-6* 7 -6* 7 -7 7
I planned each char-tered course;
-7 6 7 -6 -6 -6 6 7 -6
Each care-ful step a-long the by-way,
-6 6 3 -6 6 -5
And more, much more than this,
-4 5 -5 -5 5
I did it my way.
6 -6 7 7 -7 7 -6* 7
Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew
-6* 7 -7 -7 7 7 -7 7 -7
When I bit off more than I could chew.
-7 -8 8 8 -7 8 -7 -8
But through it all, when there was doubt,
-8 8 -9 -9 10 -8 -9 8
I ate it up and spit it out.
-7 -8 8 8 -7 8 -7 -8
I faced it all and I stood tall;
-8 8 -9 -9 8
And did it my way.
3 6 3 6 -5 6
I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried.
3 6 -5 6 -5 6 -5 -5 5*
I’ve had my fill; my share of los-ing.
-3 -6 -3 -6 6 -6
And now, as tears sub-side,
-3 -6 6 -6 7 -5 -6 6
I find it all so a-mus-ing.
-6* 7 -6* 7 -7 7
To think I did all that;
-7 6 7 -6 -6 -6 6 7 -6
And may I say – not in a shy way,
-6 6 3 -6 6 -5
Oh no, oh no not me,
-4 5 -5 -5 5
I did it my way.
6 6 -6 7 7 -7 7 -6* 7
For what is a man, what has he got?
-6* 7 -7 -7 7 -7 7 -7
If not him-self, then he has not.
-7 -8 8 8 -7 8 -7 -8
To say the things he tru-ly feels;
-8 8 -9 -9 10 -8 -9 8
And not the words of one who kneels.
-7 -8 8 8 -7 -9 8 -8
The rec-ord shows I took the blows –
-8 8 -9 -9 8
And did it my way!
