I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for showing a very clear picking pattern of how to play this song. As I am a beginner, I always have a hard time to follow the songs, which most of the guitar tutorial instructors have shown on KZbin, because most of whom have not shown the charts and not even shown how to use the fingers, and picked the patterns properly. However, you're an extraordinary guitar instructor I've ever met since I began searching someone like you to show a precise picking pattern of how to play the songs. Frankly, I play your song over and over every time when I wake up in the morning until I leave home. Once again, thank you a million times for sharing your talent to others. God bless you, sir!

[@guitartutorman]

Thank you for your kind comment, I really appreciate your support. Best wishes with your playing - Alan :)

You have achieved that I take a guitar again ater almost 20 years. I found in your channel everything I need because I love again my guitar and you gave me new force to go ahead in this life. When I began Internet didn´t exist so I think that God gives me a new motivation to keep on going through this life. GOD BLESS YOU.

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've travelled each and every highway And more, much more than this I did it my way 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 chartered course Each careful step along the by-way And more, much more than this I did it my way 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 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 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 Yes, it was my way This is to help me but feel free to use it

This song was actually composed by Claude François, and then Sinatra transposed it in English. So it's also a good tuto for "comme d'habitude" by Claude François. (yes French pride for once)

Excellent tutorial this worked great for me on guitar. I tried to use this chord scheme for piano as well and just a minor comment about it. When playing it on keys you can play the F11, Fm11 and G11 chords as F, Fm and G chords since the 2nd and 3rd strings are not touched on the guitar
