My Songs
Did you know?
"My Way" talks about a man who, having grown old, reflects on his life as death approaches.
He is comfortable with his mortality and takes responsibility for how he
dealt with all the challenges of life while
maintaining a respectable degree of integrity.

| Intro: |
| D D |
| D D/C# |
| And now, the end is near, |
| D/C B7 |
| And so I face the final curtain, |
| Em Em/D |
| My friend I'll say it clear, |
| A7 |
| I'll stay my case |
| D4 D |
| of which I'm certain. |
| D Dmaj7 D7 D |
| I've lived a live that's full. |
| G Em |
| I travelled each and every highway, |
| D/A A7 |
| And more, much more than this |
| A G/D D |
| I did it my way. |
| D D/C# |
| Regrets, I've had a few, |
| D/C B7 |
| But then again, too few to mention. |
| Em Em/D |
| I did what I had to do, |
| A7 D4 D |
| And saw it thru without exemption. |
| D Dmaj7 D7 D |
| I planned each charted course, |
| G Em |
| Each careful step along the byway, |
| D/A A4 |
| And more, much more than this |
| A G/D D |
| I did it my way. |
| A7 D Dmaj7 |
| Yes there were times, |
| D7 |
| I'm sure you knew, |
| G |
| When I bit off |
| Gm |
| more than I could chew, |
| Em |
| But thru it all, |
| A A/G |
| when there was doubt, |
| F#m Bm |
| I ate it up, and spit it out. |
| Em A |
| I faced it all, and I stood tall, |
| G/D D |
| And did it my way. |
| D D/C# |
| I've loved, I've laughed and cried. |
| D/C |
| I've had my fill |
| B7 |
| my share of losing. |
| Em Em/D |
| And now, as tears subside, |
| A7 D4 D |
| I find it all so amusing. |
| D Dmaj7 D7 D |
| To think I did all that |
| G Em |
| And may I say not in a shy way, |
| D/A A4 A |
| "Oh no oh no not me, |
| G/D D |
| I did it my way". |
| A D Dmaj7 |
| For what is a man, |
| D7 D |
| what has he got? |
| G |
| If not himself, then he has naught. |
| G/F# Em |
| To say the things |
| A7 A/G |
| he truly feels |
| F#m |
| And not the words |
| Bm |
| of one who kneels. |
| Em A |
| The record shows I took the blows |
| G/D D |
| and did it my way |
| Bridge: |
| B7 Em D D x2 |
| Ending: |
| D Dmaj7 D7 G Gm D D/C# Bm |
| Bridge: |
| B7 Em D D x2 |
| A G/D D |
| Yes it was my way |
