[Verse]
C Am
When the night has come
And the land is dark
F G C
And the moon is the only light we'll see
C Am
No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
F G C
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
[Verse]
C C Am
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh now now stand by me
F G C
Stand by me, stand by me
[Chorus]
C Am
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
F G C
And the mountains should crumble to the sea
[Verse]
C Am
I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear
F G C
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
[Chorus]
C Am
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me
F G C
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah
[Verse]
C C Am
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me, oh now now stand by me
F G C
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
[Chorus]
C Am
Darlin', darlin', stand by me-e, stand by me
F G C
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
