STAND BY ME

John Lennon

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

as recorded by John Lennon on the album "Rock n Roll"

 

 When the night has come

And the land is dark

And the moon is the only light well see

No I wont be afraid, no I wont 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 wont cry, I wont cry, no I wont 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 youre in trouble wont 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
