By Your Side chords by Mike Perry

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
Em
  We've all been there before
C               G
  Searching for open doors
                 D    Em
Living on fading hope
Em
  We all got battle scars
C            G
  Demons and broken parts
                   D
Trying our best to cope

Pre-Chorus:
Em
So you should never worry
C         G
  You can trust me
D            Em      C    D
  You're not on your own


Chorus:
       Em       C      G        D
If you leave it all behind this moment
Em              C             G         D
I'll be by your side, I'll be by your side
       Em        C        G          D
If you feel like all your lights are stolen
Bm              C             D
I'll be by your side, I'll be by your side
   Em                C               G          D
So when you're down, when you're up, I'll be there
    Em               C            G            D
And when you're lost in the dark, don't be scared
       Em       C     G         D
If you leave it all behind this moment
Bm              C             D  N.C.
I'll be by your side, I'll be by your side


Post-Chorus:
Em              C             G            D
I'll be by your side, I'll be by your side
Em              C             G            D
I'll be by your side, I'll be by your side
Em              C             G            D
I'll be by your side, I'll be by your side

I'll be by your side, I'll be by your side


Verse 2:
Em
  Sometimes it's hard to swim
C            G
  Start all over again
                    D    Em
When you keep going under
Em
  We all got battle scars
C            G
  Demons and broken parts
                      D     Em
But we don't lose our colors


Pre-Chorus:
         Em
'Cause we  all need someone
C      G
  To rely on
D         Em     C    D
  When we feel alone


Chorus:
       Em       C      G        D
If you leave it all behind this moment
Em              C             G         D
I'll be by your side, I'll be by your side
