MY WAY (p. anka, j. revaux, g. thibault, c. frankois)
C Em7/B
and now, the end is near;
Em7/Bb A7 A
and so i face the final curtain.
Dm Dm/C
my friend, ill say it clear,
G7/B /G Csus4 C
ill state my case, of which im certain.
C Cmaj7 C9 C7b9
ive lived a life thats full.
Fadd9 F FmMaj7 Fm6
ive traveled each and evry highway;
C Cadd9 G7sus4 G
and more, much more than this,
F6 C
i did it my way.
C Em7/B
regrets, ive had a few;
Em7/Bb A7 A
but then again, too few to mention.
Dm Dm/C
i did what i had to do
G7/B /G Csus4 C
and saw it through without exemption.
C Cmaj7 C9 C7b9
i planned each charted course;
Fadd9 F FmMaj7 Fm6
each careful step along the byway,
C Cadd9 G7sus4 G
but more, much more than this,
F6 C
i did it my way.
C Cmaj7 C9 C7b9
yes, there were times, i'm sure you knew
Fadd9 F FmMaj7 Fm6
when i bit off more than i could chew.
Dm7 Dm G7 G
but through it all, when there was doubt,
Em7 Em Am7 Am
i ate it up and spit it out.
Dm G
i faced it all and i stood tall;
F6 C
and did it my way.
C Em7/B
ive loved, ive laughed and cried
Em7/Bb A7 A
ive had my fill; my share of losing.
Dm Dm/C
and now, as tears subside,
G7/B /G Csus4 C
i find it all so amusing.
C Cmaj7 C9 C7b9
to think i did all that;
Fadd9 F FmMaj7 Fm6
and may i say not in a shy way,
C Cadd9 G7sus4 G
oh no, oh no not me,
F6 C
i did it my way.
C Cmaj7 C9 C7b9
for what is a man, what has he got?
Fadd9 F FmMaj7 Fm6
if not himself, then he has naught.
Dm7 Dm G7 G
to say the things he truly feels;
Em7 Em Am7 Am
and not the words of one who kneels.
Dm G
the record shows i took the blows
F6 C
and did it my way!
