Intro:  A  Fm6  D  E  A    

A1:
A 
When the night has come
Fm6  
And the land is dark
D                   E                A 
And the moon is the only light we'll see
A 
No, I won't be afraid,
Fm6 
No, I won't be afraid
D               E          A 
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.


Chorus: 
A 
So, darling, darling, stand by me,
Fm6 
Oh, stand by me 
D          E            A 
Oh, stand, stand by me, stand by me 

A2:
A  
If the sea that we look upon 
Fm6 
Should tumble and fall
D                     E               A
Or the mountain should crumble in the sea,
A 
I won't cry, I won't cry,
Fm6 
No, I won't shed a tear
D               E          A 
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.

Chorus
