[D] [E]
[A] When the night has come and [F#m] the land is dark and the [D] moon is the [E] only light [A] we'll see,
no I won't be afraid, oh I [F#m] won't be afraid, just as [D] long [A] as you stand, stand by me.
So darlin', darlin', oh [F#m] stand by [F#] me, oh [D] stand, [E] stand by me, [A] stand by me.
If the sky should
[F#m] tumble and fall, or the [D] mountains [E] should crumble to [A] the sea,
[F#m] shed a tear, just [D] as long as you [E] stand, stand [A] by me.
And darlin', oh [F#m] stand by me, oh [D] stand now, [E] stand by [A] me, stand by me.

Stand, [F#m] oh stand by me, [D] oh stand now, stand [E] by me, [A] stand by me.
Whenever you're in trouble, won't you stand by me, [F#m] oh stand by me, oh [D] stand now, oh [E] stand, stand by me.
