Stand By Me

Ben E. King

(Ben E. King/Jerry Leiber/Mike Stoller) 

When the night has come 

And the land is dark 

And the moon is the only light we´ll see 

No I won´t be afraid, no I won´t be afraid 

Just as long as you stand, stand by me 

And darlin´, darlin´, stand by me, oh now now stand by me 

Stand by me, stand by me 

If the sky that we look upon 

Should tumble and fall 

And the mountains should crumble to the sea 

I won´t cry, I won´t cry, no I won´t shed a tear 

Just as long as you stand, stand by me 

And darlin´, darlin´, stand by me, oh stand by me 

Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah 

----- guitar ----- 

Whenever you´re in trouble won´t you stand by me, oh now now stand by me 

Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me 

Darlin´, darlin´, stand by me-e, stand by me 

Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
