I'll Stand by You The Pretenders
I'll Stand By You
Songwriters: Chrissie Hynde,Tom Kelly, and Billy Steinberg
Key of D with change to C and back to D
This is a great song for working on changing from basic bar chords
throughout the song. This is taken directly from the piano sheet
music and I arranged it for guitar. Everything should be correct,
some of the chord placements may be a hair off due to program spacing.
Good luck and rock on!
