[Verse 1]
A F#m
When the night, has come. And the land is dark.
D E7 A
And the moon, is the only light we'll see.
A F#m
Oh I won't, be afraid, no I won't be afraid
D E7 A
just as long as you stand, stand by me.
[Chorus]
A
And darling, darling, stand by me
F#m
Oh nah, nah, stand by me
D E A
Stand by me, stand by me
[Verse 2]
A F#m
If the sky, that we look upon, should tumble and fall.
D E7 A
And the mountains should crumble to the sea.
A F#m
I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear
D E7 A
just as long as you stand, stand by me
[Chorus]
A
And darling, darling, stand by me
F#m
Oh nah, nah, stand by me
D E A
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me-ee yeah
