When the night has come and [F#m] the land is dark and the [D] moon is the [E] only light [A] we'll see,
No, I won't be afraid, oh, I [F#m] won't be afraid, just as [D] long as you [E] stand, stand [A] by me.
So, darling, darling, stand by me, oh, [F#m] stand by me, oh, [D] 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] mountain [E] should crumble to [A] the sea,
I will cry,
[F#m] shed a tear, just [D] as long as you [E] stand, stand [A] by me.
So, darling, darling, stand by me, oh, [F#m] stand by me, oh, [D] stand now, [E] stand by [A] me, stand by me.
