no I won't be afraid, oh I [F#] won't be [F#m] afraid just as long _ as you [E] stand, stand by [A] me.
_ So darling, darling stand _ by me, _ oh [F#] stand _ by me, oh [D] stand, _ _ [E] stand by me, [A] stand by me. _
If the sky _ that we look upon _
_ [F#] should tumble and fall or the [D] mountain _ [E] should crumble
to [A] the sea, _ _ _ _ I will cry _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ and shed a tear just [D] as long as [E] you stand, stand [A] by me.
_ And darling stand _ by me, _ oh [F#] stand by [F#m] me, oh [D] stand now, _ [E] _ stand by [A] me, stand by me.
