And now
the end is (Em)near,
and so I (Gm6)face
the fi nal (A7)cur tain.
My (Dm)friend,
what I’ll say it (Dm)clear,
I’ll state my (Dm7)case,
of which I’m (C)cer tain.
I’ve lived
a life that’s (C7)full,
I trav eled (F)each
and ev ’ry (Fm)high way,
and (C)more,
much more than (G7)this,
I did it (F6)my
(C)way.
Re grets,
I’ve had a (Em)few,
but then a (Gm6)gain,
too few to (A7)men tion.
I (Dm)did
what I had to (Dm)do,
and saw it (Dm7)through
with out ex (C)emp tion.
I planned
each chart ed (C7)course,
each care ful (F)step
a long the (Fm)by way,
and (C)more,
much more than (G7)this,
I did it (F6)my
(C)way.
Re (F6)my
(C)way.
Yes, there were times,
I’m sure you (C7)knew,
when I bit (F)off
more than I could chew,
but through it (Dm7)all,
when there was (G7)doubt,
I ate it (Em7)up
and spit it (Am)out.
I faced it (Dm7)all
and I stood (G7)tall,
and did it (F6)my
(C)way.
I’ve loved,
I’ve laughed and (Em)cried,
I’ve had my (Gm6)fill,
my share of (A7)los ing.
And (Dm)now,
as tears sub (Dm)side,
I find it (Dm7)all
(G7)so a (C)mus ing.
To think
I did all (C7)that,
and may I (F)say,
not in a (Fm)shy way,
“Oh (C)no,
oh no, not (G7)me,
I did it (F6)my
(C)way.”
For what is a man,
what has he (C7)got?
If not him (F)self,
then he has naught.
To say the (Dm7)things
he tru ly (G7)feels
and not the (Em7)words
of one who (Am)kneels,
the rec ord (Dm7)shows
I took the (G7)blows,
and did it (F6)my
(C)way.

- Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
- It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.

- Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
