Sex Pistols - My Way
To play this properly you'll need to tune your guitar down about a ¼ to a ½ of a tone
i.e. somewhere between E and Eb.
Intro: Emaj7, Emaj7
Verse 1
Emaj7
And now, the end is near
Emaj7 C#sus4 C#
And so I face the final curtain
F#m F#m7/E
You cunt, I'm not a queer
B E
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
E7*
I've lived a life that's full
Am6
On each and every highway
E B
And much, much more than this
F#m E
I did it, my way
Break
E5, E5, E5, E5
Verse 2
E5
Regrets, I've had a few
C#
But then again too few too mention
F#5
I did what I had to do
B E5
I saw through without exemption
I planned each charted course
A Am
Each careful step along the byway
E5 B
And more, much more than this
E5
I did it my way
Verse 3
E5
There were times, I'm sure you knew
A
When there was fuck, but fuck all else to do

But through it down, when there was doubt
G#5 C#
I shack it up or kicked it out
F#5 B
I face the wall and the wall

And did it my way

E5
I've loved and been a snake
C#5
I've had my fill, my share of losing

And now, the tears subside

I find it all so amusing
To think, I killed a cat
A Am
And may I say - not in a gay way
E5 B
No, no oh no not me
E5
I did it my way
For what is a brat, what has he got?
A
When he wears pants and he cannot
F#5 B
Say the things he truly feels
G#5 C#
But only the words, of one who kneels
F#5 B
The record shows, I shot the bloke
E5
And did it my way

About the artist behind My Way Chords:
The Sex Pistols emerged as a response to the "increasingly safe and bloated" progressive rock,[4] disco and manufactured pop music of the mid-1970s. The band created controversies which captivated Britain,[5] but often eclipsed their music.[6] Their shows and tours repeatedly faced difficulties with organisers and authorities, and public appearances often ended in mayhem. Their 1977 single "God Save the Queen" was regarded as an attack on the British monarchy and British nationalism.[7]
At the end of a turbulent US tour, Rotten left the band in January 1978. The remaining trio carried on with vocals by Jones, Edward Tudor-Pole and Ronnie Biggs before disbanding in early 1979. Vicious died of a heroin overdose that February. In 1996, Rotten, Jones, Cook and Matlock reunited for the Filthy Lucre Tour; they staged two further reunion shows in 2002, and undertook tours in 2003, 2007 and 2008. On 24 February 2006, the Sex Pistols were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but they refused to attend the ceremony, calling the museum "a piss stain".[8]
