If you want to play the descending basenotes in the chorus,
(which are a lot easier on the piano), it's something like this:
with emphasis on the D string, then A string the next 3 notes,
on the words "wake" "every" "day" and "hoping."
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.

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?
G A Em
Oh, oh
     C            D  A
It?s all becoming so clear

D       A               Bm    G
You?ll be mine forever and almost always
         D             A                G    A
It ain?t right to just love me when you can, oh
        G           A
I won?t wait patiently
   D             Bm              Em A
Or wake up every day just hoping that
             D
You?ll still care

A               Bm
Forever and almost always
G            D             A                G      A
No, it ain?t right to just love me when you can, baby
            G           A
Ain?t gonna wait patiently
        D             Bm              Em A
I won't wake up every day just hoping that
          D   G A x4 D
You still care
