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 which i'm certain

i've lived a life that's full
i've traveled each and ev'ry highway
but more, much more than this
i did it my way

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

i planned each charted course
each careful step along the byway
but more, much more than this
i did it my way

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

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

to think i did all that
and may i say - not in a shy way
"no, oh no not me
i did it my way"

for what is a man, what has he got?
if not himself, then he has naught
to say the things he truly feels
and not the words of one who kneels
the record shows i took the blows
and did it my way
