just after the chord except for the last note on the D string
which is bass again.

I see the headlights
Shining on the wall
It seems, I've got a visitor
Who is kind enough to call
And I hope and pray, everyday
I hope and pray, it's you
I thought I heard some footsteps
On the floor
And tell me, am I dreaming
Or is someone at the door?
And I hope and pray, everyday
I hope and pray, it's you
Autumn turns to winter
And winter turns to spring
I only know the passing
Of the days
And if you were to ask me
'Bout the meaning of my life
It kind of lost it's meaning
On the day you went away
You know that when it comes
To matters of the heart
I thought I had it covered
But it's tearing me apart
And I hope and pray, everyday
I hope and pray, it's you
Autumn turns to winter
And winter turns to spring
The summer sun still lingers
In my head
If it wasn't for the letters
That you wrote me from the heart
I'd sometimes wonder, baby
If I dreamed it all instead
You see, I've got to feel your hand
Upon my face
I need to get the calling
To rejoin the human race
And I hope and pray, every day
I hope and pray, it's you
I hope and pray, every day
I hope and pray, it's you, yeah
Yeah, I hope and pray, every day
I hope and pray, it's you
