[Intro]
| D | D |
 
[Part 1]
D Dmaj7 D7 B7
And now the end is near and so I face the final curtain.
Em Em/D A/C# A7 D
My friend, I'll say it clear, I'll state my case of which I'm certain.
D Am7 D7 G Gm Gm/Bb
I've lived a life that's full, I traveled each and every highway,
D A7 Gm Gm/Bb D
and more, much more than this, I did it my way.
 
[Part 2]
D Dmaj7 D7 B7
Regrets, I've had a few, but then again too few to mention.
Em Em/D A/C# A7 D
I did what I had to do and saw it thru without exemption.
D Dmaj7 Am7 D7 G Gm Gm/Bb
I planned each charted course, each careful step along the byway.
D A7sus4 A Gm Gm/Bb D**
And more, much more than this, I did it my way.
 
[Part 3]
Gmaj7/A** D Dmaj7 Am7 D
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew,
G Em/G
when I bit off more than I could chew.
Em7 A
But thru it all, when there was doubt,
F#m7 Bm7
I ate it up, and spit it out.
Em7 G/D A7/C#
I faced it all and I stood tall
A7* Em7/A* A7* G D G/A
and did it my way.
 
[Part 4]
D Dmaj7 D7 B7
I've loved, I've laughed and cried. I've had my fill, my share of losing.
Em Em/D A/C# A7 D
And now as tears subside, I find it all so amusing.
D Dmaj7 Am7 D7 G Gm Gm/Bb
To think I did all that and may I say, not in a shy way,
D A7 Gm Gm/Bb D*
"No, oh no not me, I did it my way".
 
[Part 5]
F#m/A* G/A* A* D Dmaj7 Am7 D7 G Em/G
For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself then he has not.
Em7 A F#m7 Bm7
To say the things he truly feels and not the words of one who kneels.
Em7 G/D A/C# A7* Em7/A* A7* G D G/A* G/A* G/A*
The record shows I took the blows and did it my way!
| D Dmaj7 | Am7 D | G | Em7 |
| Dmaj7 Bm7 | Em7* |
G Gm/E D*
Yes, it was my way.
