If you play with the capo on 7th, emphasize the same words, but the E string the first 3 notes, then the D string the last. e|-x---x---x---x-| e|-3---3---3---2-| B|-3---3---3---3-| B|-3---3---3---3-| G|-2---2---2---2-| G|-0---2---0---2-| D|-0---0---0---0-| OR D|-0---0---2---0-| A|-x---4---2---0-| A|-2---0---2---x-| E|-x---x---x---x-| E|-3---2---0---x-| D G A x2 D G So the story goes on down A D The less-traveled road G A Bm It’s a variation on the one I was told G A And although it’s not the same Em G (A) It’s awful close, yeah D G A D In an ordinary fairytale land G A Bm There’s a promise of a perfect happy end G A Em And I imagine having just short of that A Is better than nothing D A Bm G So you’ll be mine forever and almost always D A G A And I’ll be fine; just love me when you can, yeah G A And I’ll wait patiently D Bm Em A I’ll wake up every day just hoping that D G A x2 You still care D G In the corner of my mind A I know too well D Oh, that surely even G A Bm I deserve the best But instead of leaving G A Em I just put the issue to bed G A And out of my head D G And just when I believe A You’ve changed for good D G Well, you go and prove me wrong A Just like I knew you would Bm G When I run out of second chances A Em You give me that look A And you’re off the hook D A Bm G Because you’re mine forever and almost always D A G A Oh and I’m fine, just love me when you can, yeah G A And I’ll wait patiently D Bm Em A I’ll wake up every day just hoping that G You still care A Bm Oh, oh Em What am I still doing here?
