The Tears are in your eyes

Come on and come to me now
F#                   A#m
Don't be ashamed to cry

When the night falls on you
A#m                    D#m
You don't know what to do

Come on and talk to me now
E    C#m              G#m
Hey, what you got to hide
          A
I get angry too
           C#m        B
Well I'm a lot like you
G#m                           C#m
When you're standing at the crossroads
          G#m                   C#m
And don't know which patch to choose
              A
Let me come along
                   B
'Cause even if you're wrong

I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you

Take me in, into your darkest hour
                  E
And I'll never desert you
               F#
I'll stand by you


[Solo]
D#m  E  D#m  C#


[Bridge]
    A#m  D#m              A#m             D#m
And when, when the night falls on you baby
                    B
You're feeling all alone
                  C#
You won't be on your own


[Chorus]
               F#                D#m
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you

Take me in, into your darkest hour
                  E
And I'll never desert you
