D5              A5 (not positive about this)
Oh, why you look so sad

Tears are in your eyes
                    A5  | - G5 (slide barred chord)
Come on and come to me now
D5                A5
Don't be ashamed to cry

Cause i've seen the darkside too

When the night falls on you
 C5            E5
Don't know what to do

Nothing you confess

Can make me love you less

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

I'll stand by you

Come on and talk to me now
D5                A5
Hey what you got to hide

Well I'm alive like you
