The Penitential Act
I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters,
that I have sinned, in my thoughts and in my words,
in what I have done and in what I have failed to do,
(strike breast) through my fault, through my fault,
through my most grievous fault; therefore
I ask blessed Mary ever Virgin, all the Angels and Saints, and you, my brothers and sisters,
to pray for me to the Lord our God.

Not said in the confessional, but during Mass as preparation for Holy Communion.

In the confessional, you simply say,

Bless me Father for I have sinned. The you recite whatever sins you need forgiven.
