Lyrics:

----
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 face 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 truely feels,
and not the words
of one who kneels.
The record shows
I took the blows,
and did it my way.
The record shows
I took the blows,
and did it my way.
