Capo VII

[Intro]
F  Dm  A#  C  F

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

[Chorus]
                       F
So, darling, darling, stand by me,
     Dm
Oh, stand by me.
     A#   C             F
Oh, stand, stand by me,

Stand by me.

[Verse]
        F
If the sky that we look upon
Dm
  Should tumble and fall
       A#               C              F
Or the mountain should crumble to the sea,
        F
I won't cry, I won't cry,
      Dm
No, I won't shed a tear
        A#            C             F
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.

[Chorus]
                       F
And darling, darling, stand by me,
     Dm
Oh, stand by me.
     A#       C              F
Oh, stand now, stand by me,

Stand by me.

[Interlude]
F  Dm  A#  C  F  2x

[Chorus]
                       F
So, darling, darling, stand by me,
     Dm
Oh, stand by me.
     A#               C
Oh, stand now, stand by me,
      F
Stand by me.

[Outro]

Whenever you're in trouble
           F                Dm
won't you stand by me, oh, stand by me
     A#              C             F
Oh, stand now, oh, stand, stand by me
