E can also be replaced with E7 and work fine
A
when the night has come
F#m
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
F#m
Oh 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
F#m
Oh stand by me
D
Oh stand now
D
Stand by me
A
Stand by me
[Verse 2]
A F#m
If the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall
D E A
Or the mountain should crumble to the sea
A
I won't cry I won't cry
F#m
No I won't shed a tear
D E A
Just as long as you stand stand by me
[Chorus]
A
So darling darling stand by me
F#m
Oh stand by me
D
Oh stand now
D
Stand by me
A
Stand by me
[Chorus]
A
So darling darling stand by me
F#m
Oh stand by me
D
Oh stand now
D
Stand by me
A
Stand by me
A
So darling darling stand by me
F#m
Oh stand by me
D
Oh stand now
D
Stand by me
A
Stand by me
