D#          G#                            D#  A#
You've seen every scar I don't show on my skin
D#            G#                                D#  A#
And you taste every word that hasn't passed my lips
D#          G#                              D#  A#
You know my every smile and what they all mean
D#      G#                      D#  A#
Happy, sad and broken or in between

        Fm7
I know you've seen all my imperfections
Cm                  A#
You've seen all my rough
Fm7
You've seen that I ain't that perfect
 Cm                 G#  
Still you give me love

Chorus:
             D# G#
You stand by me
Fm7                 A#
Through the longest nights
             D# G#
You stand by me
Fm7                  A#
Through the hardest times
             D# G#
You stand by me
   D#      Fm7             A#
I know at times I get too much
          D#         A#   Cm   D#    G#  
You must feel like giving up, hmm-hmm
                 D# G#  D#  A#
But you stand by me

You seen me dance on my two left feet
But you're not ashamed to dance with me, hmm-hmm
When you make me lose my breath,
you're the air that I need
You stand by me

Chorus

I know you've seen all my imperfections
You've seen all my rough
You've seen that I ain't that perfect
But still you give me love

Chorus:
You stand by me (By me)
Through the longest nights
You stand by me
Through the hardest times
You stand by me
I know at times I get too much
You must feel like giving up, hmm-hmm
But you stand by me
