| A |
| When the night has come |
| F#m |
| And the land is dark |
| D | E7 | |
| And the moon | is the only |
| A | |
| Light we'll see |
No I won't be afraid
| F#m | |
| No, I | won't be afraid |
| D | E7 | |
| Just as long | as you stand |
| A | |
| Stand by me |
And darling, darling stand by me
| F#m | |
| Oh, now, now, now, |
Stand by me
| D | E7 |
| Stand, stand by me |
| A | |
| Stand by me |
If the sky that we look upon
| F#m |
| Should trumble and fall |
| D | E7 | |
| And | the mountains should | crumble |
| A | |
| In the | sea |
I won't cry, I won't cry
| F#m | |
| No, I | won't shed a tear |
| D | E7 | |
| Just as long | as you stand |
| A | |
| Stand by me |
And darling, darling stand by me
| F#m | |
| Oh, | stand by me |
| D | E7 | A |
| Stand by me |
