So here it is then.
Where I wrote the X's I usually just tap the strings with my right hand to resemble the
in Otis' version. It's not required but I find it adds some character to the song. =)

It's the same chords for the chorus as for the verse. Here's the lyrics with the chords
it may or may not be of help to you.
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
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Oh now stand, stand by me, stand by me.
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountains should crumble to 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
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Oh now stand, stand by me, stand by me.
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Oh now stand, stand by me, stand by me.
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Oh now stand, stand by me, stand by me.
