Dm Dm7 my friend , i ll say it clear , G7 C i ll state my case , of which i m certain . C C7 i ve lived a life that s full , F Fm i ve traveled each and every highway C G7 and more , much more than this , Dm C i did it my way . C Em regrets , i ve had a few; E7 A7 but then again , too few to mention . Dm Dm7 i did what i had to do , G7 C and saw it through without exemption . C C7 i planned each charted course , F Fm each careful step along the byway C G7 and more , much more than this , Dm C i did it my way . C C7 yes , there were times , i m sure you knew , F F7 when i bit off more than i could chew . Dm7 G7 but through it all , when there was doubt , E7 Am i ate it up and spit it out . Dm7 G7 i faced it all and i stood tall; Dm C and did it my way . C Em ive loved , i ve laughed and cried , E7 A7 i ve had my fill; my share of losing . Dm Dm7 and now , as tears subside , G7 C i find it all so amusing . C C7 to think i did all that; F Fm and may i say not in a shy way , C G7 oh no , no not me , Dm C i did it my way . C C7 for what is a man , what has he got? F F7 if not himself , then he has naught . Dm7 G7 to say the words he truly feels; E7 Am and not the words of one who kneels . Dm7 G7 the record shows i took the blows , Dm C and did it my way . set8
