Capo 7th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

x2

So the story goes on down

  The less-traveled road

  It’s a variation on the one I was told

  And although it’s not the same

  It’s awful close, yeah

In an ordinary fairytale land

  There’s a promise of a perfect happy end

  And I imagine having just short of that

  Is better than nothing

 So you’ll be mine forever and almost always

 And I’ll be fine; just love me when you can, yeah

 And I’ll wait patiently

 I’ll wake up every day just hoping that

x2

You still care

In the corner of my mind

  I know too well

Oh, that surely even

  I deserve the best

But instead of leaving

  I just put the issue to bed

  And out of my head

And just when I believe

  You’ve changed for good

Well, you go and prove me wrong

  Just like I knew you would

When I run out of second chances

  You give me that look

  And you’re off the hook

 Because you’re mine forever and almost always

 Oh and I’m fine, just love me when you can, yeah

 And I’ll wait patiently

 I’ll wake up every day just hoping that

 You still care

 Oh, oh

What am I still doing here?

Oh, oh

 It’s all becoming so clear

 You’ll be mine forever and almost always

 It ain’t right to just love me when you can, oh

 I won’t wait patiently

 Or wake up every day just hoping that

 You’ll still care

 Forever and almost always

No, it ain’t right to just love me when you can, baby

 Ain’t gonna wait patiently

 I won't wake up every day just hoping that

x4

You still care
