G (320003@1) (2) Em (022000@1) (2)
When the night has come and the land is dark
C (x32010@1)(1) D7 (xx0212@1) (1) G (320003@1) (2)
and the moon is the only light to see
G (320003@1) (2) Em (022000@1) (2)
No I won't be afraid No I..I won't be afraid
C (x32010@1) (1) D7 (xx0212@1) (1) G (320003@1) (2)
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

C (x32010@1) D7 (xx0212@1) G (320003@1) Oh Stand, Stand by me, Stand by me
verse 2
G (320003@1) Em (022000@1) If the Sky that we look upon should tumble and fall
C (x32010@1) D7 (xx0212@1) G (320003@1) or the mountains should crumble to the sea
G (320003@1) Em (022000@1) I won't cry I won't cry No I..I won't shed a tear
