Lyrics

[Verse 1]

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

[Verse 2]

I've lived a life that's full

I've traveled each and every highway

Oh, and more, much more than this

I did it my way

[Verse 3]

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

[Verse 4]

I planned each charted course

Each careful step along the byway

Oh, and more, much more than this

I did it my way

[Verse 5]

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 I spit it out

I faced it all and I stood tall

And did it my way

[Verse 6]

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

[Verse 7]

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

[Verse 8]

For what is a man, what has he got

If not himself? Then he has naught

To say the words 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
