My Way (Live)

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

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

I 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

And 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 are 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

But 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, than he has naught

To say the things he truly feels

And not a word of one who kneels

The record shows

I took the blows

And did it my way

Yes, this was my way
