Stand By Me----Ben E. King


Verse 1:

         C
When the night, has come
Am
and the land is dark.
        F           G7               C
And the moon is the only light we'll see.
      C
No, I won't be afraid,
     Am
no I won't be afraid,
        F            G7
just as long, as you stand,
         C
stand by me.

Chorus:

                      C
So, darling, darling, Stand by me.
    Am              F
Oh, stand by me, oh stand,
G7          C
stand by me, stand by me.

Verse 2:

       C
If the sky that we look up on,
Am
should tumble and fall.
       F               G7             C
Or the mountain should crumble in the sea.
        C
I won't cry, I won't cry,
      Am
No, I won't shed a tear.
        F            G7
Just as long, as you stand,
         C
Stand by me.

Repeat Chorus
