[F#]
[D] [E]
[A] When the night has come [F#m] and the land is dark and [D] the moon [Em] is the only [A] light we'll see,
no I won't be afraid, oh I [F#m] won't [F#] be afraid [D] just as long as you [E] stand, [A] stand by me.
So darling, darling stand by me, oh [F#] stand by me, [D] oh stand, [E] stand by me, [A] stand by me.
If the sky that we look upon [F#m] should tumble and fall or the [D] mountains [E] should crumble to [A] the sea,
I won't cry, I won't cry,
[F#m] shed a tear [D] just as long as you [E] stand, [A] stand by me.
And darling stand by me, oh [F#m] stand by [F#] me, [D] oh stand now, [E] stand by [A] me, stand by me.

[E] [A] And darling stand by me, [F#m] oh stand by [F#] me, [D] oh stand now, [E] stand by me, [A] stand by me.
Whenever you're in trouble, [A] just stand by me, [F#m] oh stand by [F#] me, oh [D] stand now, [E] oh stand, stand [A] by me.
