Song: Stand By Me
Band: Pennywise
Album: Wildcard/A Word From The Wise
From: FenderStrt@aol.com/Brendan Campbell
     
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see 
No, I won't be afraid,
No, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me. 
Chorus:
So, darling, darling, stand by me,
* F#m
Oh, stand by me.
Oh, stand, stand by me,
Stand by me.
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.
