Stand By

  C     Em
Oh, the sea
  F                   G
Waves of eternity, waves of serenity
  F
As I stare through them
                    G
All around me just dies
   Dm
Tonight
                                F
Can we pretend there's no more time?
                 Dm
Let's lock our doors and leave
                      G
This endless world outside


[Chorus]
                   C
But if you don't mind
    Am      F
I will be here
G                    C          G     F
Holding back those years that pass us by
    Am             C           G      F
And in a natural high you'll hold my hand
       G         F
We'll take a breath
       G
So tonight
              F
If you don't mind
G           C    F
I will stand by


[Verse 2]
  C       Em
Oh, this life
  F                                         G
Something so beautiful but hard at the same time
  F                                         G
Taught me it could be gone in a blink of an eye
   Dm
Tonight
                                F
Can we pretend there's no more time?
                 Dm
Let's lock our doors and leave
                      G
This endless world outside


[Chorus]
               C
If you don't mind
    Am      F
I will be here
G                    C          G     F
Holding back those years that pass us by
    Am             C           G      F
And in a natural high you'll hold my hand
       G         F
We'll take a breath
       G
So tonight
              F
If you don't mind
G           C
I will stand by
