Frank Sinatra, My Way(1967) Key: :[D](w: Jacques Revauw, Claude Francios, english lyrics by Paul Anka)
VERSE 1:
And [D] now, the end is [F#m] near
And so I [Am6] face, the final [B7] curtain
My [Em] friends, I'll say it [Em7] clear
I'll state my [A7] case, of which I'm [D] certain
CHORUS 1:
I've [D] lived a life that's [D7] full
I've travelled [G] each and every [Gm] highway
And [D] more, much more than [A7] this
I did it [Em7] my [D] way
VERSE 2:
Re-[D]-grets? I've had a [F#m] few
But then a-[Am6]-gain, too few to [B7] mention
I [Em] did, what I had to [Em7] do
And saw it [A7] through without ex-[D]-emption
CHORUS 2:
I [D] planned each charted [D7] course
Each careful [G] step along the [Gm] byway
And [D] more, much more than [A7] this
I did it [Em7] my [D] way
BRIDGE 1:
Yes, there were [D] times, I'm sure you [D7] knew
When I bit [G] off more than I could chew
But through it [Em7] all, when there was [A7] doubt
I ate it [F#m7] up and spit it [Bm] out
I faced it [Em7] all and I stood [A7] tall
And did it [Em7] my [D] way
VERSE 3:
I've [D] loved, I've laughed and [F#m] cried
I've had my [Am6] fill, my share of [B7] losing
But [Em] now, as tears sub-[Em7]-side
I find it [A7] all so a-[D]-musing
CHORUS 3:
To think I did all [D7] that
And may I [G] say, not in a [Gm] shy way
Oh [D] no, oh no, not [A7] me
I did it [Em7] my [D] way
BRIDGE 1:
For what is a [D] man? What has he [D7] got?
If not him-[G]-self, then he has not
To say the [Em7] things he truly [A7] feels
And not the [F#m7] words of one who [Bm] kneels
The record [Em7] shows I took the [A7] blows
And did it [Em7] my [D] way
OUTRO: [D][D7] // [G][Gm] // [D][A7 open]
Yes, it was [Em7] my [D] way
