"Stand Beside Me"....Jo Dee Messina
Written by: Stephen Allen Davis
Transcribed by Andrew D. Crews (crews@sicembears.com)

Intro:  C  C2  C  C2  C  C2  C

C2          C           C2          C     C2          C     C2  C
He left me cryin' late one Sunday night outside of Boulder
C2          C      C2     C      C2        G        
He said he had to find himself out on the road
               F         G
I guess when love goes wrong
             F           G
You gotta learn to be strong
        F         C
So, I worked two jobs
        F           C   F
And I moved three times
    C        F         C
I ended up south of Memphis
  F                   G      
Workin' down in Riverside
           F              G
I may not be so lucky in love
          F
But, the one thing I'm sure of

CHORUS:
 F                       C 
I want a man to stand beside me
F                     C
Not in front of, or behind me
  F                            C      F
Give me two arms that want to hold me
     C  Am
Not own me
           F                      G
And I'll give all the love in my heart
         C        F
Stand beside me
 F                   C
Be true, don't tell lies to me
F                       C
I'm not looking for a fantasy
    F                   C
I want a man to stand beside me

C2          C           C2          C     C2          C     C2  C
I didn't expect to see him one hot July morning
C2          C           C2          C     C2          G
His hair was longer, but his eyes were the same old blue
                F                 G
He said, "I've missed you for so long...
          F
Oh baby, what can I do?"

I said...

CHORUS:
 F                       C 
I want a man to stand beside me
F                     C      
Not in front of, or behind me
  F                            C    F
Give me two arms that want to hold me
 C      Am
Not own me
           F                      C-
And I'll give all the love in my heart

BRIDGE:
                  G   Am             F
Oh, it's hard to tell him no when I want him so bad
           G         Am          F         G 
But, I've got to be true to my heart this time...

F                       C
I'm not looking for a fantasy

I want a man to stand beside me

I want a man to stand beside me

Stand beside me

Stand beside me
