[Intro] C G F C [Verse 1]
C                          G
Yes I had a woman love me,   I gave her what there was there of me.  

F                             C
  And it was good as it could be.

                                   G
Then I heard a wild world calling,   I saw a lone star falling,

F                           C  
  I caught a song, & set it free.
[Chorus]
                   Am              C               Am            G 
        And many a long & lonesome highway, lies before us as we go,

                   F               C       Am           G                        C
        And in the end, I'll do it my way.     Look for me, where the four winds blow.
[Verse 2] G I believe in love & danger, I believe the truth is stranger,
F                                 C
  I believe that fear is much too strong.

                                 G 
I believe the best will find me,   when I leave the rest behind me, 

F                          C
  Out on the highway on my own.
[Chorus]
                   Am              C               Am            G 
        And many a long & lonesome highway, lies before us as we go,

                   F               C       Am           G                        C
        And in the end, I'll do it my way.     Look for me, where the four winds blow.
[Solo] [Chorus]
                   Am              C               Am            G 
        And many a long & lonesome highway, lies before us as we go,

                   F               C       Am           G                        C
        And in the end, I'll do it my way.     Look for me, where the four winds blow.
[Bridge]
                        Am              Em             Am
              And every night's a new beginning.  Everyday, the world keeps spinning.

              Em                                G
                Sometimes, it's hard to stand upon my own.

              F                                      Am             
                To the East, the moon comes showing.    To the West, there's dark clouds rolling.

              Em                         G
                I'm by myself, but not a-lone no more.
[Verse 3]
C                                     G
  My father on his death bed told me,   there's really nothing left to hold me, 

F                             C
  Though I was there he died alone.

                                         G
It's going to take a fast train leaving,   to shake my world from grieving.  

F                               C
  I'll guess I'll go until it's gone.
[Chorus]
                   Am              C               Am            G 
        And many a long & lonesome highway, lies before us as we go,

                   F               C       Am           G                        C
        And in the end, I'll do it my way.     Look for me, where the four winds blow.
