C                               Am
When the night has come and the land is dark,
        F           G                C
and the moon is the only light we'll see.
C                            Am
No, I won't be afraid, no, I won't be afraid,
        F           G               C
just as long as you stand, stand by me.

CHORUS:
C
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh, now, 
    Am
now stand by me, ohhh..
F                                     G
Stand by me, baby, won't you stand by me.

#2.
       C                            Am
If the sky that we look upon should tumble and 
            F                G             C
fall or the mountains should tumble to the sea.
C                               Am
I won't cry, I won't cry, no, I won't shed a tear.
        F           G               C
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.

CHORUS:
C
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh, now, 
    Am
now stand by me.
    F                                         G
Oh, stand by me, oh, baby, won't you stand by me.
