And now , the end is near ,
And so I face the final curtain .
My friend , Ill say it clear ,
Ill state my case , of which Im certain .
Ive lived a life thats full .
Ive traveled each and every highway ,
And more , much more than this ,
I did it my way .
Regrets , Ive 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 , Im 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 .
Ive loved , Ive laughed and cried .
Ive 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 !
Yes , it was my way .
And so I face the final curtain .
My friend , Ill say it clear ,
Ill state my case , of which Im certain .
Ive lived a life thats full .
Ive traveled each and every highway ,
And more , much more than this ,
I did it my way .
Regrets , Ive 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 , Im 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 .
