Lyrics

It’s (D)like a storm

that (D)cuts a path.

It breaks

your will,

it (A)feels (E)like that.

You (D)think you’re lost;

but you’re not (D)lost,

on your (A)own.

You’re not a lone.

I will (A)stand by you.

I will (C#m)help you through when you’ve (D)done all you can do and you can’t (Esus)cope.

I will (F#m)dry your eyes.

I will (C#m)fight your fight.

I will (D)hold you tight and I (Esus)won’t

(E)let

(A)go.

It (D)hurts my heart

to (D)see you cry.

I know

it’s dark,

this (A)part of life.

Oh, it finds (F#m)us all.

We’re too (D)small

to stop the rain.

Oh, but when it rains

(D)I will (A)stand by you.

I will (C#m)help you through when you’ve (D)done all you can do and you can’t (Esus)cope.

I will (F#m)dry your eyes.

I will (C#m)fight your fight.

I will (D)hold you tight and I (Esus)won’t

(E)let you fall.

Don’t be a fraid to fall.

I’m right here to catch you.

I won’t let you down.

It won’t get you down.

You’re gon na make

it.

Yeah, I know you can make

it.

’Cause I will (B)stand by you.

I will (D#m)help you through when you’ve (E)done all you can do and you can’t cope.

And (Gdim)I will (G#m)dry your eyes.

I will (D#m)fight your fight.

I will (E)hold you tight and I (F#sus)won’t

(Gdim)let

go.

Oh, I’m gon na (C#m)hold you,

and I (F#sus)won’t

(F#)let

(B)go.

Won’t (F#)let you go.

No, I won’t.
