[Verse 1]
F
How can I feel all alone
C Dm Am
When I know you always be there
Bb F
Whenever I need you
G C
If ever I need you
F
And when I'm down and really low
C Dm Am
You are there to take me higher
Bb F
You carried my burden
C F
Lighten my load
[Chorus]
F C F
You stood by me, when I was almost falling
Bb Dm Gm
You heard my voice, when I call
Bb F
And now that I can offer comfort
G C
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
F C F
You stood by me, when I was nearly drowning
Bb Dm Gm
You held the light in the dark
Bb F
And now that I am growing stronger
G C
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you.
[Verse 2]
F
I will never be afraid
C Dm Am
If I know you right beside me
Bb F
As close as I want you
G C
Your love I can turn to
F
And when you say follow me
C Dm Am
I'll be there to take you higher
Bb F
A brighter tomorrow
G F
Come walk with me
[Chorus]
F C F
You stood by me, when I was almost falling
Bb Dm Gm
You heard my voice, when I call
Bb F
And now that I can offer comfort
G C
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
F C F
You stood by me, when I was nearly drowning
Bb Dm Gm
You held the light in the dark
Bb F
And now that I am growing stronger
G C
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you.
