When the night has come and the land is da- rk

And the mo- on is the on- ly light we'll see
A# A# Gm Gm
No, I wo - n't be af- raid, no, I won't be af- raid
D# F A# A#
Just as long as you st- and, stand by me. So darlin', darlin'
[Chorus 1]
A# A# Gm Gm

stand by me, stand by me.
[Verse 2]
A# A# Gm Gm
If the sky that we look up-on should tumble and fall
D# F A# A#
And the mount- ain should crumble to the sea
A# A# Gm Gm
I won't cry, I won't cry, no, I won't shed a tear
D# F A# A#
Just as long as you stand, stand by me. And darling, darling
[Chorus 2]
A# A# Gm Gm
stand by me, oh now stand by me,
D# F A# A#
stand by me, stand by me.

[Chorus 3]
