Stand By Me

Stand By Me
By Ben E. King, Jerry Leiber & Mike Stoller


VERSE 1
When the [A] night has come, [F#m] and the land is dark, and the [D] moon is the [E7] only light we'll [A] see.


No, I [A] won't be afraid, no, I [F#m] won't be afraid, just as [D] long as you [E7] stand; stand by [A] me.


VERSE 2
If the [A] sky that we look upon, [F#m] should tumble and fall, or the [D] mountains should [E7] crumble to the [A] sea.


I won't [A] cry, I won't cry, no, I [F#m] won't shed a tear, just as [D] long as you [E7] stand, stand by [A] me.


CHORUS
So [A] darlin', darlin' stand by me, oh, [F#m] stand by me, oh, [D] stand now, won't you [E7] stand, stand by [A] me.


When[A]ever you're in trouble, won't you stand by me? Oh, [F#m] stand by me. Oh [D] stand now? Won't you [A7] stand, stand by [A] me?
