[A] [F#m]
[D] [Em] [A] [Cm] When [A] the night has come and [F#m] the land is dark and [D] the moon is [E] the only light [A] we'll see
No I won't be afraid, [F#m] oh I won't be afraid
Just [D] as long as [E] you stand, stand [A] by me
So darling, darling, stand by me, [F#m] oh stand by me
[D] Oh stand, [E] stand by [A] me, stand by me
If the skies that we look upon [F#m] should tumble and fall
Or [D] the mountains [E] should tumble through [A] the seas
I won't cry, [F#m] [C#m] shed [F#m] a tear, just [D] as long as [E] you stand, stand [A] by me
And darling, darling, stand by me, oh [F#m] stand by me
[D] Oh stand now, [E] stand by [A] me, stand by me
Oh
[F#m]
[D] [E] [A]
[F#m]
[D] [E] [A]
[F#m] stand [E] by [F#m] me, [D] oh stand now, [E] stand by me, [A] stand by me
Whenever you recover, we'll kiss this cold, [F#m] body, oh
[D] [E] Oh stand, stand [A] by me
