[Intro] G  Em  C  D  G

[Verse 1]

G                             Em7
When the night has come, and the land is dark
        C               D              G
And the moon is the only light you see
G                          Em7
No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
        C             D          G
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

[Chorus 1]

G
Oh darling, darling, stand by me
   Em7                  C           D  G
Oh stand by me, Oh Stand, Stand by me

[Verse 2]

G                       Em7
If the sky that we look upon Should tumble and fall
          C                 D                   G
Or the mountains should crumble to the sea
G                       Em
I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear
C            D                       G
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

[Chorus 2]

G
Oh darling, darling, stand by me
Em         Em7                  C       D       G
Oh stand, stand by me, Oh stand by me

[Verse 3]

G
Whenever your in trouble you just stand by me
Em              C       D       G
Oh stand by me, Oh stand by me

( G  Em7  C  D  G )
( Em  Em7  C  D  G )

[Verse 4]

G
Whenever your in trouble you just stand by me
       Em                       C       D       G
Oh stand by me,  Oh stand, stand by me, stand by me

[Final]

G
 Oh darling, darling, stand by me
Em                 C         D         G
Oh stand by me, Oh stand, stand by me
G
Stand by me, stand by me
