Chords

[Intro] Am7 (no 5) F Dm F [Verse 1]
Dm
No, no use in lecturing them

      F
Or in threatening them

          C    Am7  F   Am7 Dm
They will just say "who are you?"

          Dm
Is that a question or not?

        F
And you see then the plot

      C  Am7  F    Am7 Bb
Is predicta - ble, not new

                 Bb                             C
But you're still stunned at the things you will do
[Verse 2]
Dm
No, no use in taking their time

      F
Or in wasting two dimes

     C    Am7 F   Am7   Dm
On a call to  God knows who

             Dm
When all you feel is the rain

         F
And it's hard to be vain

        C  Am7 F     Am7 Bb
When no person looks at  you

           Bb                       C7
So just be gracious and wait in the queue
[Chorus]
   Am                     Em
So when do I get to sing "My Way"?

Am                    Em
When do I get to feel like Sinatra felt?

Am                    Em
When do I get to sing "My Way"

   Dm
In heaven or hell?

   Am                     Em
So when do I get to do it my way?

Am                    Em
When do I get to feel like Sid Vicious felt?

Am                    Em
When do I get to sing "My Way"

   Dm7
In heaven or hell
[Verse 3]
Dm
Yes, it's a tradition, they say

       F
Like a bright Christmas day

       C Am7   F     Am7 Dm
And traditions must  go  on

             Dm
And though I say "yes, I see"

      F
No, I really don't see

      C  Am7 F    Am7   Bb
Is my smiley face still on?

           Bb                      C7
Sign their name with an X, mow the lawn
[Chorus]
   Am                     Em
So when do I get to sing "My Way"?

Am                    Em
When do I get to feel like Sinatra felt?

Am                    Em
When do I get to sing "My Way"

   Dm
In heaven or hell?

   Am                     Em
So when do I get to do it my way?

Am                    Em
When do I get to feel like Sid Vicious felt?

Am                    Em
When do I get to sing "My Way"

   Dm7
In heaven or hell
[Bridge]
Em           Dm
They'll introduce me

Am
Hello, hello

Em      Dm          Am
Women seduce me and champagne flows

         Em
Then the lights go low
N.C. There's only one song I know [Instrumental] Dm F C [Verse 4]
Dm
There, this home which once was serene

       F
Now is home to the screams

       C  Am7 F      Am7 Dm
And to flying plates and shoes

           Dm
But I have no souvenirs

         F
Of these crackerjack years

      C Am7  F Am7   Bb
Not a moment I could choose

            Bb                   C7
And not one offer that I could refuse
[Chorus]
   Am                     Em
So when do I get to sing "My Way"?

Am                    Em
When do I get to feel like Sinatra felt?

Am                    Em
When do I get to sing "My Way"

   Dm
In heaven or hell?

   Am                     Em
So when do I get to do it my way?

Am                    Em
When do I get to feel like Sid Vicious felt?

Am                    Em
When do I get to sing "My Way"

   Dm7
In heaven or hell?
Note: Sounds good switching between Em 0402 and Em 0432 during "like Sinatra felt"/"like Sid Vicious felt".
