Intro:
G       G       Em      Em
C       D       G       G
 

                         G                    G                   Em                        Em
When the night      has come                      and the land is dark
                         C                       D                     G          G
And the mo-    on is the on-  ly light we'll see
                     G                   G                  Em             Em
No, I wo -     n't be af-     raid, no, I    won't be afraid
                    C                        D                       G                              G
Just as        long as you st-and, stand by  me      So darlin', darlin'


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

  If the sky   that we look upon                 should tumble and fall
Or the mount-ains      should crumble to the sea
I won't cry,      I won't cry,    no, I      won't shed a tear
Just as long     as you stand,    stand by   me       And darling, darling


Chorus
