Chords

[Intro] D7 | D7 | G | G [Verse 1]
G
A shoulder to cry on

   C                 G
Is all you want from me

    D7                                    G
Someone to share your heartaches when you cry

G
Someone you can depend on

         C          G
who will always be around

    D7                                   G  G7
I'm nothing more than just your old standby
[Chorus]
   C
If you could call me darling
If you could call me dear
   A7                                D  D7
If you could learn to love me by and by

  G
I wouldn't mind this waiting

    C                 G
For I could stand the pain

       D                                   G
I'd be more to you than just your old standby
[Solo] | G | D | D | G | G [Verse 2]
G
You wouldn't call me darling

        C                G
and you wouldn't call me dear

  D                               G
I wonder if you'll miss me when I die

G
You have no consideration

        C             G
And you show no sympathy

    D                                    G
I'm nothing more than just your old standby
[Chorus]
   C
If you would call me darling
If you would call me dear
   A7                                D  D7
If you could learn to love me by and by

  G
I wouldn't mind this waiting

    C                 G
For I could stand the pain

       D                                      G   G
I'd be something more than just your old standby
