Verse 1 John 🏷Legend:
           G6
When the night has come
Em
  And the land is dark
        Cadd9       Dsus2                G6
And the moon is the only light we'll see

No, I won't be afraid,

       G6
If the sky that we look upon
Em
Should tumble and fall

Or the mountain should crumble in the sea,

Verse 4 Sam Smith:
         G6
I won't cry, I won't cry,

  I won't shed a tear

Just as long as you stand, stand by me.
