[A]
And now, the end is near
And so I face the final curtain .
My friend, I'll say it clear .
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full .
I traveled each and every highway .
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way
[A]
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention .
I did what I had to do .
And saw it through without exemption
I planned each charted course .
Each careful step along the byway .
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way
[B]
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew.
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall
and did it my way
[A]
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fill, my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside.
I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that.
And may I say, not in a shy way.
Oh, no, oh, no, not me,
I did it my way
[B]
For what is a man, what has he got?.
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way
