BEN E. KING - STAND BY ME
[Intro]
A F#m D E A
[Verse 1]
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
No, I won't be afraid
D E A
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.
[Chorus]
E F#m E A G#m A
So, darling, darling, stand by me,
F#m
Oh, stand by me.
D E A
Oh, stand, stand by me,
Stand by me.
[Verse 2]
A
If the sky that we look upon
F#m
Should tumble and fall
D E A
Or the mountain should crumble in 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]
E F#m E A G#m A
And darling, darling, stand by me,
F#m
Oh, stand by me.
D E A
Oh, stand now, stand by me,
Stand by me.

Oh, stand now, stand by me,
A
Stand by me.
[Outro]

Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me, oh, stand by me
