Lyrics

And now

the end is (Am)near

and so I (Cm)face

the fin al (D7)cur tain.

My (Gm)friend,

I’ll say it (Gm)clear,

I’ll state my (C7)case

of (C7)which I’m (F)cer tain.

I’ve lived

a life that’s (F7)full,

I’ve tra velled (Bb)each

and ev ’ry (Gm7)high way

And (F)more,

much more than (C7)this,

I did it (Gm7)my

(F)way.

Yes there were times

I’m sure you (F7)knew

when I bit (Bb)off

more than I could (Bbmaj7)chew.

But through it (Gm7)all

when there was (C)doubt

I ate it (Am7)up

and spat it (Dm)out.

I faced it (Gm7)all

and I stood (C7)tall

and did it (Gm7)my

(F)way.
