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.
