[Verse]
C
Love of mine
        Am
someday you will die,
            F
but I'll be close behind;
            C            G
I'll follow you into the dark.


[Verse]
   C
No blinding light
              Am
or tunnels to gates of white,
               F
just our hands clasped so tight
        C                  G
waiting for the hint of a spark.


[Chorus]
     Am               C   
  If heaven and hell decide
           F             C    G
that they both are satisfied,
  Am           C    
  illuminate the noes
          G
on their vacancy signs.
     Am              C   
  If there's no one beside
               E      Am     G
you when your soul embarks
     F           
  then I'll follow
  Fm           C
you into the dark.


[Verse]
   C
In Catholic school,
              Am
as vicious as Roman rule,
         F
I got my knuckles bruised
     C       G
by a lady in black.


[Verse]
      C
And I held my tongue
       Am
as she told me "Son,
            F
fear is the heart of love".
     C          G
So I never went back.


[Chorus]
     Am               C   
  If heaven and hell decide
           F             C    G
that they both are satisfied,
  Am           C    
  illuminate the noes
          G
on their vacancy signs.
     Am              C   
  If there's no one beside
               E      Am     G
you when your soul embarks
     F           
  then I'll follow
  Fm           C
you into the dark.


[Verse]
C
You and me
               Am
have seen everything to see
                F
from Bangkok to Calgary,
        C             G
and the soles of your shoes


[Verse]
    C
are all worn down.
             Am
The time for sleep is now
                    F
but it's nothing to cry about
             C               G
'cause we'll hold each other soon
       Am          F
in the blackest of rooms.


[Chorus]
     Am              C    
  If heaven and hell decide
           F             C    G
that they both are satisfied,
  Am           C    
  illuminate the noes
          G
on their vacancy signs.
     Am              C   
  If there's no one beside
               E      Am     G
you when your soul embarks
     F           Fm           C     G
Then I'll follow you into the dark
       F\            Fm~            C~
Then I'll follow you into the dark
