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 every highway

And 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 by way

and 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

And 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

Oh 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

And it is my way.
