And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain.
-3 -5 -5 -5 5 -5 -3 -5 5 -5 -4 6 5 -4 -5 5
My friend, I'll say it clear, I'll state my case, of which I'm certain.
4 6 6 6 -5 6 6 6 -6 6 -5 -5 5 6 -5 5 -5
I've lived a life that's full. I've traveled each and every highwa a--ay,
3 5 3 -5 5 -4 -3 4 -4 -4 4 3 5
and more, much more than this, I did it my way. Re---grets,
6 5 -4 5 3 5 -4 5 5 5 -4 -4 4
I’ve had a few, but then a---gain, too few to mention.
-3 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 -5 -3 -5 5 -5 -4 6 5 -4 -5 5
I did what I had to do and saw it through without e-x---emption.
4 6 6 6 -5 6 -6 5 6 -5 -5 -5 5 6 -5
I planned each chartered course, each careful step along the byway,
3 5 5 -5 5 -4 -3 4 -4 -4 4
but more, much more than this, I did it my way

5 -5 6 6 -7 6 -5 6 -5 6 -7 -7 7 -7 6
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew, when I bit off more than I
-6 -6 -7 7 7 -6 7 -6 -7 -7 7 -8 -8 8 -7 -8
c'chew. But through it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up and spit it |
7 7 7 -7 7 7 -8 7 -7 -7 7 -8 -8 7
out. I faced it all and I stood tall, and did it my way.
3 5 3 5 -4 5 3 5 -4 5
I’ve loved, I've laughed and cried. I've had my fill,
3 5 -4 -4 4
my share of losing.
-3 -5 -3 -5 5 -5 -3 -5 5 -5 6 -4 -5 5
And now, as tears sub---side, I find it all so a---musing.
4 6 6 6 -5 6 -6 5 6 -5
To think I did all that and may I say
-5 -5 5 6 -5 6 5 3 -5 5 -4 -3 4 -4 -4 4
not in a shy way, no, no, oh no not me, I did it my way.

4 5 -5 6 6 -6 6 -5 6 -5 6 -6 -6 -7 -6 6
For what is a man, what has he got? If not him self, then he has
-6 -6 -7 7 7 -6 7 -6 -7 -7 7 -8 -8 8 -7 -8
naught. To say the things he truly feels, and not the words of one who
7 7 7 7 7 7 -8 7 -7 -7 7 -8 -8 7
kneels. The record shows I took the blows - and did it my way!

-3 4 -4 -4------- 4------
I did it my way.
