have gotten 7 or 8 but for the context.
[Verse 1]
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 traveled each and every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
[Verse 2]
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
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
[Verse 3]
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 faced it all, and I stood tall
And did it my way
[Verse 4]
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
Oh, no, oh, no, not me
I did it my way
[Verse 5]
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
[Outro]
Yes, it was my way
