Stride Beside Me

Lyrics

[Intro]


(Acoustic guitar strumming with soft sub-kick beat)


[Verse 1]
When the road is long, and the path is wide
And we need a friend to be our guide
I will feel no fear, when I know you're near
In the darkest hour of the night

[Chorus]
So darling, darling, walk with me
Oh, walk with me
Oh, won't you stand, stand by my side
By my side
Just as long as you stay by my side

[Verse 2]
If the storm should rise, and the rivers flow
And the bitter winds begin to blow
I will never fall, answering your call
We can face the world as we go

[Chorus]
So darling, darling, walk with me
Oh, walk with me
Oh, won't you stand, stand by my side
By my side
Just as long as you stay by my side

[Guitar Solo]


(Melodic acoustic guitar duet with vocal ad-libs)
Ooh-ooh, yeah
Stay by my side

[Chorus]
So darling, darling, walk with me
Oh, walk with me
Oh, won't you stand, stand by my side
By my side
Just as long as you stay by my side

[Outro]
Stand by my side
Oh, won't you walk with me
Stay by my side

(Acoustic guitar fades out)
