πΈ Verse 1:
B D#m Gm6 G#7
And now, the end is near, and so I've got to face the final curtain
C#m C#m7 F#7 B
My friend, I'll say it clear and state my case of which I'm certain
B7 E Em
I've lived a life that's full, I've traveled each and every highway
B F#7
And more, much more than this
Em B
I did it my way
πΈ Verse 2:
B D#m Gm6 G#7
Yes, regrets, I've had a few, but then again, too few to mention
C#m C#m7 F#7 B
I did what I had to do, and saw it through without exemption β
B7 E Em
I've planned, each charted course, each careful footstep along the byway
B F#7
Yeah, and more much more than this
Em B
I did my way

πΈ Verse 3:
B B7
Yes there were times, I'm sure you knew β

I faced it all and I stood tall

And did it my way β
πΈ Verse 4:
B D#m Gm6 G#7
I've laughed and cried, had my fill my share of losing

And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing β

To think I did all that, and may I say not in a shy way β
B F#7
Oh, no, no, no, no, not me,
Em B
I did it my way" β
πΈ Verse 5:
B B
What is a man, what has he got?
B7 E
If not himself, then he has naught

To say the things he truly feels

Not the words of one who kneels β
G#m
And that shows I took the blows β
C#m7 F#7 Em B
And did it my way
