[Verse 1]
C# C# A#m A#m
When the night has come and the land is da- rk
F# G# C# C#
And the mo- on is the on- ly light we'll see
C# C# A#m A#m
No, I wo - n't be af- raid, no, I won't be af- raid
F# G# C# C#
Just as long as you st- and, stand by me. So darlin', darlin'
[Chorus 1]
C# C# A#m A#m
stand by me, oh now stand by me,
F# G# C# C#
stand by me, stand by me.
[Verse 2]
C# C# A#m A#m
If the sky that we look up-on should tumble and fall
F# G# C# C#
And the mount- ain should crumble to the sea
C# C# A#m A#m
I won't cry, I won't cry, no, I won't shed a tear
F# G# C# C#
Just as long as you stand, stand by me. And darling, darling
[Chorus 2]
C# C# A#m A#m
stand by me, oh now stand by me,
F# G# C# C#
stand by me, stand by me.
[Solo]
C# C# A#m A#m
F# G# C# C#
C# C# A#m A#m
F# G# C# C#
[Chorus 3]
C# C# A#m A#m
Stand by me, oh now stand by me,
F# G# C# C#
stand by me, stand by me.
