Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American singer and actor. Regarded as one of the most significant cultural icons of the 20th century, he is often referred to as the "King of Rock and Roll" or simply "the King".
Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi, and relocated to Memphis, Tennessee, with his family when he was 13 years old. His music career began there in 1954, recording at Sun Records with producer Sam Phillips, who wanted to bring the sound of African American music to a wider audience.

CEm And now the end is near, GmA7 and so I face the final curtain, DmDm7 My friend, I'll say it clear, G7C I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
CC7 I've lived a life that's full, FFm I traveled each and every highway, CGFC And more, much more than this, I did it my way
CEm Regrets, I've had a few, GmA7 but then again, too few to mention, DmDm7 I did what I had to do, G7C and saw it thru without exemption,
CC7 I planned each chartered course, FFm each carefull step along the by way CGFC And more, much more than this, I did it my way
CC7 Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew, FFm when I bit off more than I could chew, Dm7G But thru it all, when there was dout, EmAm I ate it up, and spit it out Dm7GFC I faced it all, and I stood tall, and did it my way
CEm I've loved, I've laughed and cried, GmA7 I've had my fill, my share of losing DmDm7 And now, as tears subside, G7C I find it all so amusing
CC7 To think I did all that, FFm and may I say, "Not in a shy way" CGFC Oh no, oh no, not me, I did it my way
CC7 For what is a man, what has he got, F if not himself, then he has not Dm7G To say the things he truly feels, EmAm And not the words of one who kneels Dm7GFC The record shows I took the blows, and did it my way Dm7GFC The record shows I took the blows, and did it my way
