This is probably the most famous song of Frank Sinatra. I think Pearl Jam is
playing a cover of Elvis Presley, who also played it. This is one of the first
songs I've learned to play whith my father, so I think I know it pretty well.
I'm not sure if Pearl Jam have played it exactly like this, but I did it My Way!

CORRECTIONS:

This corrections aren't important for the song. It doesn't modify anything really. I'm just commenting aspects of the way it is played.
In the 8th line I've tabbed this:

----------------------|---------3------|-----0-0---0-0-0|----------------|----

      this,   I did it my               way.Yes there... times, I'm sure you

But I realized that in the back of those arpeggios the rhythm starts. Then the arpeggios stop and there will be only the rhythm. So, it would be something like this:

|---------------------|---------3------|--------------------------------------

      this,   I did it my               way.Yes there... times, I'm sure you

Also I have to say that I don't really know if the correct tune is C. As I'd always played with C, I tabbed in this tune; it works...
And I'm not sure if the arpeggios are played with a guitar. Listen to it, I guessed it could be a piano or something like that.
Any other thing, just say.
See you
