The 1st four notes on the D and A 
strings are played like a
bass just before playing the chord. 
The other notes are played
just after the chord except for the 
last note on the D string
which is bass again.

   D                               
1  I see the headlights shining on 
    F#m
the wall.*
2  I thought I heard some footsteps 
on the floor.*
      Em                           
1  It seems I've got a visitor, who
    D
 is kind enough to call.&
2  And tell me if I'm dreaming, or 
is someone at the door.&

Chorus
D     Bm       F#m    Bm   F#m
And I hope and pray, ev'ry day.
F#m  Bm       F#m        D
I    hope and pray. It's you.

    F#m                            
And if you were to ask me, about 
  Bm
the meaning of my life.
   G                               
It kind of lost it's meaning, on 
  A
the day you went away.
A             D             
You know that when it comes to 
                  F#m  *
matters of the heart.
  Em                               
I thought I had it covered, but 
  D                &
it's tearing me apart.

I sometimes wonder baby, if I
