Dames      
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 witch I’m certain
Dames+Hr  
I ‘ve lived a live that’s full,
I’ve travelled each and ev’ry highway 
and more, much more than this
I did it my way
Dames
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
Dames+Hr  
I planned each chartered course
Each careful step along the byway
and more, much more than this
I did it my way

Hr           

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 spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way

Dames      
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
Dames+Hr  
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

Hr
What is a man what has he got,
If not himself then he has not
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels,
The record shows I took the blows

Dames+Hr  
And did it my way
