My Way

(início)

Intro: C
       C           Em
And now the end is near,
         Gm             A7
and so I face the final curtain,
   Dm                  Dm7
My friend, I’ll say it clear,
              G7                 C
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain
      C                  C7
I’ve lived a life that’s full,
           F              Fm
I traveled each and every highway,
    C          G                        F   C
And more, much more than this, I did it my way
  C                 Em
Regrets, I’ve had a few,
          Gm               A7
but then again, too few to mention,
  Dm               Dm7
I did what I had to do,
           G7               C
and saw it thru without exemption,
  C                      C7
I planned each chartered course,
               F             Fm
each carefull step along the by way
    C           G                         F   C
And more,  much more than this, I did it  my way
                C                   C7
Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew,
           F
when I bit off  more than I could chew,
            Dm7                 G
But thru it all, when there was dout,
         Em              Am
I ate it up, and spit it out
            Dm7              G                F   C
I faced it  all, and I stood tall, and did it my way
      C                       Em
I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried,
            Gm                A7
I’ve had my fill, my share of losing
    Dm                Dm7
And now,  as tears subside,
          G7      C
I find it all so amusing
   C               C7
To think I did all that,
           F              Fm
and may I say,  "Not in a shy way”
   C            G                 F   C
Oh no,  oh no,  not me,  I did it my way
              C                C7
For what is a man, what has he got,
          F
if not himself, then he has not
           Dm7             G
To say the things he truly feels,
            Em                Am
And not the words of one who kneels
           Dm7              G                 F   C
The record shows I took the blows, and did it my way
           Dm7              G                 F   C
The record shows I took the blows, and did it my way
