Intro: C  Am7  F  G  C

          C
When the night has come
Am7
  And the land is dark
          F          G            C
And the moon is the only light we'll see
       C
No, I won't be afraid
      Am7
No, I won't be afraid
         F            G              C
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

So darling, darling
  C              Am7
Stand by me, oh stand by me
         F            G             C
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

         C
If the sky that we look upon
Am7
  Should tumble and fall
        F                G             C
Or the mountain should crumble to the sea
         C
No, I won't, I won't cry
       Am7
No, I won't shed a tear
         F            G              C
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

So darling, darling
  C              Am7
Stand by me, oh stand by me
       F       G           C
Oh stand, oh oh stand by me, stand by me
                                     C               Am7
Whenever you're in trouble you can stand by me, oh, stand by me
         F            G             C
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
