Tom: Bm

     Bm              Bm/A#
`And now, the end is near
         D/A            E/G#
And so I face the final curtain
     Em                Em/B
My friend, I'll say it clear
               F#7                 Bm
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
      Bm        Bm/A#   Bm/A
I've lived a life that's full
               Em
I've traveled each and every highway
    Bm                    F#7
But more, much more than this
         Edim Bm
I did it my   way


   Bm               Bm/A#
Regrets, I've had a few
         D/A                E/G#
But then again, too few to mention
  Em                Em/B
I did what I had to do
            F#7              Bm
And saw it through without exemption
   Bm  Bm/A#           Bm/A
I planned each charted course
              Em
Each careful step along the byway
     Bm                   F#7
And more, much more than this
         Edim Bm
I did it my   way


       Bm                    Bm/A#
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
             D/A                E/G#
I've had my fill my share of losing
    Em                  Em/B
And now, as my tears subside
           F#7           Bm
I find it all just so amusing
     Bm   Bm/A#     Bm/A
To think I did all that
          E              Em
And may I say - not in a shy way
Bm             F#7
No, oh no, not me
         Edim Bm
I did it my   way


                 Bm                  D
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
            Em
When I bit off more than I could chew
               Em                   F#
But through it all, when there was doubt
         F#7             G
I ate it up and spit it out
            Em             F#7
I faced it all and I stood tall
           Edim Bm
And did it my   way
