My Way Chords

    C              Em
And now, the end is near;
         Em7            A
And so I face the final curtain.
   Dm                  Dm7
My friend, I’ll say it clear,
              G                  C
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain.
 
     C7
I’ve lived a life that’s full.
              F              Dm
I’ve traveled each and ev’ry highway;
    C                    G
And more, much more than this,
         Dm C
I did it my way.
 
 
 
  C                 Em
Regrets, I’ve had a few;
          Em7              A
But then again, too few to mention.
  Dm                Dm7
I did what I had to do
           G                 C
And saw it through without exemption.
 
C7
I planned each charted course;
             F              Dm7
Each careful step along the byway,
    C                    G
And more, much more than this,
         Dm C
I did it my way.
 
 
                C                   C7
Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew
           F                     Dm
When I bit off more than I could chew.
               Dm7                 G
But through it all, when there was doubt,
         Em7            Am
I ate it up and spit it out.
           Dm7             G
I faced it all and I stood tall;
           F  C
And did it my way.
 
 
     C                       Em
I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried.
            Em7               A
I’ve had my fill; my share of losing.
    Dm               Dm7
And now, as tears subside,
          G        C
I find it all so amusing.
 
   C7
To think I did all that;
          F              Dm
And may I say - not in a shy way,
C             G
No, oh no not me,
         Dm C
I did it my way.
 
 
 
              C                C7
For what is a man, what has he got?
          F                 Dm
If not himself, then he has naught.
           Em7            G7
To say the words he truly feels;
            Em7              Am
And not the words of one who kneels.
           Dm7              G7
The record shows I took the blows -
           F  C
And did it my way!
