| Eb | Gm | | And | now, the end is | near |
|
| Bbm6 | C7 | | and so I | face the final | curtain. |
|
| Fm | Fm7 | | My | friend, I'll say it | clear |
|
| Bb7 | Eb | | I'll state my case | of which I'm | certain. |
|
| Eb7 | Ab | Abm | | I've lived a life that's | full, I travelled | each and every | highway |
|
| Eb | Bb7 | Ab6 | Eb | | And | more, much more than | this, I did it | my | way. |
|
|
| Eb | Gm | | Re | grets, I've had a | few, |
|
| Bbm6 | C7 | | but then a | gain too few to | mention. |
|
| Fm | Fm7 | | I | did what I had to | do |
|
| Bb7 | Eb | | and saw it through, | without ex | emption. |
|
| Eb7 | Ab | Abm | | I planned each charted | course each careful | step, along the | byway |
|
| Eb | Bb7 | Ab6 | Eb | | And | more, much more than | this, I did it | my | way. |
|
|
| | | Eb7 | | | Yes there were times, I'm sure you | knew, |
|
| | | Ab | | | When I bit | off more than I could chew |
|
| | | Fm7 | Bb7 | | | But through it | all, when there was | doubt |
|
| | | Gm7 | Cm | | | I ate it | up, and spit it | out, |
|
| | | Fm7 | Bb7 | | | I faced it | all, and I stood | tall, |
|
| | | Ab6 | Eb | | | And did it | my | way. |
|
|
| Eb | Gm | | I've | loved, I've laughed and | cried, |
|
| Bbm6 | C7 | | I've had my | fill, my share of | losing. |
|
| Fm | Fm7 | | And | now, as tears sub | side, |
|
| Bb7 | Eb | | I find it all | so a | musing. |
|
| Eb7 | Ab | Abm | | To think, I did all | that, and may I | say, "Not in a | shy way", |
|
| Eb | Bb7 | Ab6 | Eb | | Oh no | no, oh no not | me, I did it | my | way |
|
|
| | | Eb7 | | | For what is a man, what has he | got, |
|
| | | Ab | | | If not him | self, then he has not, |
|
| | | Fm7 | Bb7 | | | To say the | things, he truly | feels, |
|
| | | Gm7 | Cm | | | And not the | words of one who | kneels. |
|
| | | Fm7 | Bb7 | | | The record | shows, I took the | blows, |
|
| | | Ab6 | Eb | | | And did it | my | way. |
