 A   F#m   D   E   A        



  When the night has come
F#m  
  And the land is dark
              D         E                 A
  And the moon is the only light we'll see

  No, I won't be afraid,
        Fm
  No, I won't be afraid
              D            E             A        
  Just as long as you stand, stand by me.

Chorus:

So, darling, darling, stand by me,
  * Fm
Oh, stand by me.
    D     E           A   
Oh, stand, stand by me,
Stand by me.
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/p/pennywise/stand_by_me_crd.html ]
  If the sky that we look upon
  Should tumble and fall
  Or the mountain should crumble in 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.

Chorus **
Then It repeats the whole thing.  Throw in some palm mutes and you'll
rule.

I can't take credit for the tab.  It was originally by someone else 
and it was listed under Ben E. King. I just modified it to the way 
Pennywise plays it(*) that is where the guitar comes in.  I left 
what was there before so you can get an idea of what the bass is playing.
(**) that is where it goes heavy distortion and picks up the 
tempo.  I am working on Final Chapters and Covers from their album
A Word From the Wise/Wildcard.  If anyone knows why it is also called
Wildcard e-mail me.  I am always up for e-mail(fenderstrt@aol.com)so mail
me and tell me how did.  Oh ya I don't know the solo. Also at the begining
it sounds like a wah-wah all the way down w/a clean amp tone.  When you
print this out do it in notepad otherwise it might move things around.
If not you'll get the picture.  For those of you that don't know chord
names here they are:

    A       F#M        D        E           Don't forget to give
                                            and not just take.
