Capo 7th fret

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
