[Verse 1] - - - And [C] now, the end is [Em] near, And so I [Gm] face, the final [A7] curtain. - - - My [Dm] friends, I'll say it [Dm7]clear, I'll state my [G7] case, of which I'm [C] certain.
- - - I've [Cmaj7] lived, a life that's [C7] full, I've traveled [F] each, and every [Fm] 
highway. - - - And [C] more, much more than [G] this, I did it [F] my [C] way.
[Verse 2] - - - [C] Regrets, I've had a [Em] few, - - - But then [Gm] again, too few to [A7] mention. - - - I [Dm] did, what I had to [Dm7] do, And saw it [G7] through, without [C] exemption.
- - - I [C] planned, each chartered [C7] course, Each careful [F] step, along the [Fm] byway. - - - And [C] more, much more than [G7] this, I did it [F] my [C] way.
[BREAK] - - - Yes, there were [Cmaj7] times, I'm [C7] sure you knew, When [F] I bit off, more than I could chew. - - - But through it [Dm] all, when there was [G7] doubt, I ate it [Em7] up, and spit it [Am] out. - - - I faced it [Dm] all, and I stood [G7] tall, - - - And did it [F] my [C] way.
[Verse 3] - - -
I've [C] loved, I've laughed and [Em] cried, I've had my [Gm] fill, my share of [A7] losing. - - - And [Dm] now, as tears [Dm7 - C?] subside, I find it [G7] all so [C] amusing.
- - - To [C] 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 [F] my [C] way.
[Verse 4] - - - For what is a [Cmaj7] man? What has he [C7] got? If not [F] himself, then he has naught. - - - To say the [Dm] things, he truly [G7] feels, And not the [Em7] words, of one who [Am] kneels.
 - - -
The record [Dm] shows, I took the [G7] blows,
N.C. And did it [F] my [C] way.
[Outro] - - - [G] Yes it was [F] my [C] way
