                             A                     F#m
            When the night has come, and the land is dark
                          D                 E                           A
            And the moon is the only light we will see
            No, I won't be afraid, oh, I won't be afraid
            Just as long as you stand, stand by me

                               A
                          So darlin', darlin' stand by me
                                 F#m
                          Oh, stand by me
                                 D        E                    A
                          Oh, stand, stand by me, stand by me

            If the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall
            Or the mountain should crumble to the sea
            I won't cry, I won't cry, no, I won't shed a tear
            Just as long as you stand, stand by me

                          And darlin', darlin' stand by me
                          Oh, stand by me
                          Whoa stand now, stand by me, stand by me
                                          *Solo*    (verse)

                          And darlin', darlin' stand by me
                          Oh, stand by me
                          Oh, stand now, stand by me, stand by me

                          Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
                          Oh, stand by me
                          Whoa stand now, oh stand, stand by me...
                                                                                                     (fade)
