CHORDS:
When the night has come and the land is dark
and the moon is the only light to see
No I won't be afraid No I..I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand by me stand by me
Darling Darling 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..I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand by me stand by me
Darling Darling Stand By Me
Oh Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me
Whenever your in trouble won't you stand by me
Oh now now stand by me oh stand by me stand by me
Darling Darling Stand By Me
Oh Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me

Label this as just the riff if you're just gonna put the riff & not write out where it goes with the lyrics.

Best version so far, just one complaint that I wasn't quite sure when to switch chords, so maybe write it out next time. :)

About this song: Stand By Me
According to the documentary History of Rock 'n' Roll, Ben E. King had no intention of recording the song himself when he wrote it.[1] King had written the song for The Drifters, who passed on the chance to record it. It was not until after the "Spanish Harlem" recording session that he had some studio time left over. The session's producers, Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, asked if he had any more songs and King played "Stand by Me" on the piano for them.
