Intro: Em C D (x2)

Verse 1:
Em                                       Em    C  D
This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
   Em                               Em    C  D
No silent prayer for faith departed
Em                      C
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
G
You're gonna hear my voice
D
When I shout it out loud

Chorus:
        Em
It's my life
     C
It's now or never
G             D
I ain't gonna live forever
Em           C               D
I just wanna live while I'm alive
         Em
(It's my life)
                    C            G
My heart is like an open highway

Like Frankie said
  D             Em
I did it my way
             C               D
I just wanna live while I'm alive
        Em
It's my life

Verse 2:
Em                                          Em    C  D
This is for the ones who stood their ground
    Em                                   Em    C  D
For Tommy and Gina who never backed down
  Em                            C
Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake
G
Luck ain't even lucky
D
Got to make your own breaks

Chorus:
        Em
It's my life
     C
It's now or never
G             D
I ain't gonna live forever
Em           C               D
I just wanna live while I'm alive
         Em
(It's my life)
                    C            G
My heart is like an open highway

Like Frankie said
  D             Em
I did it my way
             C               D
