Last Of The Independents (1994)

D  Bm  A  G...  piano           

D                F♯m
Oh, why you look so sad
             G
Tears are in your eyes
                    D/A A
Come on and come to me now

D     Bm            F♯m
Don't be ashamed to cry
               G
Let me see you through
                    Bm        A
Cause I've seen the dark side too

  F♯m                  Bm
  When the night falls on you
      F♯m                Bm
  You don't know what to do
              G
  Nothing you confess
                     A7
  Could make me love you less
  
                  D
    I'll stand by you
                  Bm7
    I'll stand by you
                     Am7
    Won't let nobody hurt you
                  D                    F  G
    I'll stand by you

So, if you're mad, get mad                            (en C)
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now

Hey, what you got to hide
I get angry too
Well I'm alive like you

  When you're standing at the crossroads
  And don't know which path to choose
  Let me come along
  Cause even if you're wrong

    Refrain  fin:  Am G D                             (en D)

    Take me in into your darkest hour
    And I'll never desert you
    I'll stand by you

D  Bm  G  f♯ e d  Bm  A  A7

  And when
  When the night falls on you baby
  You're feeling all alone
  You're walking on your own

    Refrain long  x 4                                 (fade out)
