[Intro]
           

[Verse 1]
             
When the night

 has come

  And the land

 is dark
             
And the moon i

             
s the only lig

            
ht we'll see
          
No, I won't be

 afraid,
      
No, I won't be

 afraid
             
Just as long a

             
s you stand, s

           
tand by me.

[Chorus]
              
So, darling, d

by me,
    
Oh, stand by m

e.
            
Oh, stand, sta

         
nd by me,
Stand by me.

[Verse 2]
         
If the sky tha

t we look upon

Should tumble 

and fall
             
Or the mountai

             
n should crumb

            
le to the sea,
          
I won't cry, I

 won't cry,
      
No, I won't sh

ed a tear
             
Just as long a

             
s you stand, s

           
tand by me.

[Chorus]
              
And darling, d

        
arling, stand 

by me,
    
Oh, stand by m

e.
             
Oh, stand now,

            
 stand by me,
Stand by me.

Oh, stand now,

Stand by me.

              
Whenever you'r
