Song: I'll stand by you
Tab: Nick Lyons (nlyons83@hotmail.com) and Mike Danberg (msd10@yahoo.com)
This song has a lot of piano in it. I'll try to tab it as best I can hopefully it will sound close enough.

[Intro]
D A G

[Verse]
D A (not positive about this)
Oh, why look so sad
G
Tears are in your eyes
A - G (slide barred chord)
Come on and come to me now
D A
Don't be ashamed to cry
G
Let me see you through
A - G
Cause i've seen the darkside too

[Bridge]
C Em
When the night falls on you
C Em
Don't know what to do
G
Nothing you confess
A
Can make me love you less

[Chorus]
D C
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
Am
Won't let nobody hurt you
D
I'll stand by you

[Verse]
D A
So if you're mad get mad
G
Don't hold it all inside
A - G
Come on and talk to me now
D A
Hey what you got to hide
G
I get angry too
A - G
Well I'm alive like you

[Bridge]
Em C
When you're standing at the crossroads
Em C
Don't know which path to choose
G
Let me come along
A
Cause even if you're wrong

[Chorus] (same)

[Solo] (over verse riff)

[Bridge]

And when when the night falls on you baby
G
You're feeling all alone

Won't on your own

At 3:10 the riff playing til the end of the song is just the solo
