Verse
| D | Dmaj7/C# | C6 | B7 |And now, the end is near, And so I face the final curtain, | Em | Em7/D | A7/C# A7 | D |My friend. I'll say it clear, I'll state my case of which I'm certain. | D Dmaj7 | D11 D7b9 | G | Edim7 |I've lived a life that's full. I traveled each and every highway, | D/A | A7 | G/D | D |And more, much more than this, I did it my way.
Verse 2
| D | Dmaj7/C# | C6 | B7 |Regrets, I've had a few, But then again, too few to mention. | Em | Em7/D | A7/C# A7 | D |I did what I had to do, And saw it thru without exemption. | D Dmaj7 | D11 D7b9 | G | Edim7 |I planned each charted course, Each careful step along the byway, | D/A | A7 | G/D | D A13 |And more, much more than this, I did it my way.
Hook
| D Dmaj7 | D7 | G | G |Yes there were times, I'm sure you knew, When I bit off more than I could chew, | Em7 | A7 G | F#m | Bm7 |But thru it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up, and spit it out. | Em | A7 | A7 | D |I faced it all, and I stood tall, And did it my way.
Verse
| D | Dmaj7/C# | C6 | B7 |I've loved, I've laughed and cried. I've had my fill; my share of losing. | Em | Em7/D | A7/C# A7 | D |And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing. | D Dmaj7 | D11 D7b9 | G | Edim7 |To think I did all that; And may I say - not in a shy way, | D/A | A7 | G/D | D A13 |"No, oh no not me, I did it my way".
Hook 2
| D Dmaj7 | D7 | G | G |For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself, then he has naught. | Em7 | A7 G | F#m | Bm7 |To say the things he truly feels; And not the words of one who kneels. | Em | A7 | A7 | D A7 |The record shows I took the blows…… And did it my way!…
