The Drifters

Stand By Me

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light weŽll see
No I wonŽt be afraid, no I wonŽt be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darlinŽ, darlinŽ, 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 wonŽt cry, I wonŽt cry, no I wonŽt shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darlinŽ, darlinŽ, stand by me, oh stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah

----- guitar -----

Whenever youŽre in trouble wonŽt you stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

DarlinŽ, darlinŽ, stand by me-e, stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
