This version is from the concert in Machester Arena. The lyrics is altered
slightly the key is up by a half-step (D major (original Frank Sinatra version)
to Eb), but basically the chords sound the same.
Intro: Eb,Ab,Eb,Ab
VERSE CHORDS
Eb Ebmaj7
And now the end is near
Eb7 C Ddim Gdim
So I face the final curtain
Fm Fm7
My friend, I'll say it clear
Ddim Bb Eb
I'll state my case of which I'm certain
Eb Ebmaj7 Eb7
I've lived a life that's full
Ab Abm7
I've travelled each and every highway
Eb Bb
And more, much more than this
Ab Abm Eb
I did it my way
Eb Ebmaj7
Re-grets, I've had a few
Eb7 C Ddim Gdim
But then again, too few to men-tion
Fm F7
I did what I had to do
Ddim Ab Eb
And saw it through with tax ex-emption
Eb Ebmaj7 Eb7
I planned each charted course
Ab Abm7
Each careful step along the by-way
Eb Ab
And more, much more than this
Ab Eb
I did it my way
CHORUS CHORDS
Bb Eb Ebmaj7 Eb7
Cos there were times, I'm sure you knew
Ab
When I get all, more than I could chew
Gm Fm7 Ab
But through it all when there was doubt
Gm Cm
I ate it up and spit it out
Fm7 Ab
The records show I took a boat
Ab Eb
And did it my way
VERSE COHRDS
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fails, my share of boozing
And now as tears subside
I find it all so confusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way
Oh, no, no I not me
I did it my way
For what is a man, what has he got
If not himself, then he has not
To show the world the stunning years
And not the words time would reveal
The record shows I took a blow
And did it my way
Record shows I took a blow
And did it...
