MY WAY (P. Anka, J. Revaux, G. Thibaut, C. François)
[C] [Em7/B]
And now, the end is near;
[Em7/Bb] [A7] [A]
and so I face the final curtain.
[Dm] [Dm/C]
My friend, I'll say it clear,
[G7/B] /G [Csus4] [C]
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain.
[C] [Cmaj7] [C9] [C7b9]
I've lived a life that's full.
[Fadd9] [F] [FmMaj7] [Fm6]
I've traveled each and ev'ry highway;
[C] [Cadd9] [G7sus4] [G]
and more, much more than this,
[F6] [C]
I did it my way.
[C] [Em7/B]
Regrets, I've had a few;
[Em7/Bb] [A7] [A]
but then again, too few to mention.
[Dm] [Dm/C]
I did what I had to do
[G7/B] /G [Csus4] [C]
and saw it through without exemption.
[C] [Cmaj7] [C9] [C7b9]
I planned each charted course;
[Fadd9] [F] [FmMaj7] [Fm6]
each careful step along the byway,
[C] [Cadd9] [G7sus4] [G]
but more, much more than this,
[F6] [C]
I did it my way.
[C] [Cmaj7] [C9] [C7b9]
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
[Fadd9] [F] [FmMaj7] [Fm6]
when I bit off more than I could chew.
[Dm7] [Dm] [G7] [G]
But through it all, when there was doubt,
[Em7] [Em] [Am7] [Am]
I ate it up and spit it out.
[Dm] [G]
I faced it all and I stood tall;
[F6] [C]
and did it my way.
[C] [Em7/B]
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
[Em7/Bb] [A7] [A]
I've had my fill; my share of losing.
[Dm] [Dm/C]
And now, as tears subside,
[G7/B] /G [Csus4] [C]
I find it all so amusing.
[C] [Cmaj7] [C9] [C7b9]
To think I did all that;
[Fadd9] [F] [FmMaj7] [Fm6]
and may I say not in a shy way,
[C] [Cadd9] [G7sus4] [G]
Oh no, oh no, not me,
[F6] [C]
I did it my way.
[C] [Cmaj7] [C9] [C7b9]
For what is a man, what has he got?
[Fadd9] [F] [FmMaj7] [Fm6]
If not himself, then he has naught.
[Dm7] [Dm] [G7] [G]
To say the things he truly feels;
[Em7] [Em] [Am7] [Am]
and not the words of one who kneels.
[Dm] [G]
The record shows I took the blows
[F6] [C]
and did it my way!
