My Way chords
Elvis Presley (words by Paul Anka, song Comme d'habitude, Jacques Revaux)

  C majorC        E minorEm
And now, the end is near;
     E7E7       A7A7
and so I face the final curtain.
  DmDm         Dm7Dm7
My friend, I'll say it clear,
       G7G7         C majorC
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain.
   C majorC          C7C7
I've lived a life that's full,
       FF       F minorFm
I've traveled each and every highway
  C majorC          G7G7
And more, much more than this,
     DmDm C majorC
I did it my way.

 C majorC         E minorEm
Regrets, I've had a few;
     E7E7        A7A7
but then again, too few to mention.
 DmDm        Dm7Dm7
I did what I had to do,
      G7G7        C majorC
and saw it through without exemption.
 C majorC          C7C7
I planned each charted course,
       FF       F minorFm
each careful step along the byway
  C majorC          G7G7
And more, much more than this,
     DmDm C majorC
I did it my way.

        C majorC          C7C7
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew,
      FF           F7F7
when I bit off more than I could chew.
        Dm7Dm7         G7G7
But through it all, when there was doubt,
     E7E7       A minorAm
I ate it up and spit it out.
      Dm7Dm7       G7G7
I faced it all and I stood tall;
      DmDm C majorC
and did it my way.

   C majorC            E minorEm
I've loved, I've laughed and cried,
      E7E7        A7A7
I've had my fill; my share of losing.
  DmDm        Dm7Dm7
And now, as tears subside,

     G7G7   C majorC
I find it all so amusing.
  C majorC        C7C7
To think I did all that;
  FF          F minorFm
and may I say - not in a shy way,
  C majorC     G7G7
oh no, no not me,
     DmDm C majorC
I did it my way.

       C majorC        C7C7
For what is a man, what has he got?
     FF         F7F7
If not himself, then he has naught.
      Dm7Dm7      G7G7
To say the words he truly feels;
      E7E7        A minorAm
and not the words of one who kneels.
      Dm7Dm7       G7G7
The record shows I took the blows,
      DmDm C majorC
and did it my way.
