I’LL STAND BY YOU – ROD STEWART From the Album "Still The Same"
Tabbed by Roj Vincent
       AF#mED
Intro:    
A                 C#m                          D
Oh, why you look so sad? The tears are in your eyes
                    A   E
Come on and come to me now 
     A                   C#m                   D
But don't, be ashamed to cry, let me see you through 
                        F#m        E
'Cause I've seen in the dark side too 
C#m                  F#m             C#m              F#m
When the night falls on you, and you don't know what to do 
                D                            E
Nothing you confess, could make me love you less 
               A                 F#m
I’ll stand by you, I'll stand by you 
                  Em7                    A
Won't let nobody hurt you, I'll stand by you 
C     D
…………..
G                       Em                      C
So, if you're mad, get mad, don't hold it all inside 
                        G  D
                        ………
Come on and talk to me now 
G                     Bm                C
Hey, what you got to hide? I get angry too 
             Em      D
Well, I'm a lot like you 
Bm                           Em
When you're standing at the crossroads, 
     Bm                         Em
But don't know, which path to choose 
             C                            D
Let me come along, 'cause even if you're wrong 
                A                 F#m
 I’ll stand by you, I'll stand by you 
                  Em                      A
Won't let nobody hurt you, I'll stand by you
                      F#m                          Em
Take me in to, your darkest hour, and I'll never desert you, 
               A
I'll stand by you 
          A  F#mD   E
Break               
C#m      F#m           C#m           F#m
And when, when the night falls on you, baby, 
                    D                           E
You're feeling all alone, you won't be on your own
               A                 F#m
I’ll stand by you, I'll stand by you 
                  Em                      A
Won't let nobody hurt you, I'll stand by you
                     F#m                               Em
Take me in to, your darkest hour and I'll never desert you, 
               A                  F#m
I'll stand by you , I’ll stand by you 
                  Em                            A
Won't let nobody hurt you baby, I'll stand by you
