[N] [D] I've come a long way for this event, all the way from Kaua'i.
And now the end is [C#m] near, [C] and so I face the [B] final curtain.
[Em] My friend, I'll [G] say it clear, [F#m] I'll state my case, [A] [D] of which I'm certain.
I've lived a life that's full, [G] I travel each [Em] and every highway.
[A] But more, much more than this, I did it [D] my way.
Regrets, [F#m] I've had a few, [C] but then again, too few [B] to mention.
[Em] I did what I had to do, [F#m] and saw it [A] through, [Dm]
without exemption.
[D] I planned each charted course, [G] each careful step, [Gm] along the byway.
[A] But more, much more than this, [G] I did it [D] my way.
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew, [G] when I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, [A]
[F#m] I ate it up, [Bm]
bit it out, [Em] I faced it all, [A] I stood tall.
And did [Em] it my [D]
way.
Of love, laughed and [F#m] cried, I [C] had my fill, [B] my share of losing.
[Em] And now, [G] as tears subside, I [A] find it all so [D] amusing,
to think that I did all that, [G] and may I say, [Em]
not in a shy.
[A] Oh no, no not me, [G] I did it [D] my way.
[A] [D] For what is a man, what has he got, is [G] not himself, than he has not.
[Em] Say the things [A] that he truly feels, and not the [F#m] world, [Bm] one who kneels.
And as [Em] the records show, [A] I took the blows, I did [Em] it my [D]
way.
[G]
[D] [G] [A]
Yes, it was [Em] my way.
[D]
Thank [B] you Sir Howard, for opening the door.
