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

F                                    Dm
So darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me 
   Bb     C             F
oh stand, stand by me, stand by me
 

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

F                                     Dm
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me 
   Bb        C              F
oh stand now, stand by me, stand by me
