[Verse]

D#/A#

Love of mine

        Cm/G

someday you will die,

            G#

but I'll be close behind;

             D#            A#

I'll follow you into the dark.

   D#/A#

No blinding light

              Cm/G

or tunnels to gates of white,

               G#

just our hands clasped so tight

         D#                  A#

waiting for the hint of a spark. 

 

[Chorus]

     Cm               D#              G#            D#    A#/D

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,

  Cm           D#              A#

illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.

     Cm              D#                 G      Cm     Cm/A#

If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks

     G#          G#m          D#/A#

then I'll follow you into the dark.

 

[Verse]

   D#/A#

In Catholic school,

              Cm/G

as vicious as Roman rule,

          G#

I got my knuckles bruised 

     D#        A#

by a lady in black.

      D#/A#

And I held my tongue 

       Cm/G

as she told me "Son, 

            G#

fear is the heart of love".

     D#          A#

So I never went back.

 

[Chorus]

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,

  Cm           D#              A#

illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.

If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks

     G#          G#m          D#/A#

then I'll follow you into the dark.

 

[Verse]

D#/A#

You and me

                Cm/G

have seen everything to see

                G#

from Bangkok to Calgary, 

        D#             A#

and the soles of your shoes

     D#/A#

are all worn down.

             Cm/G

The time for sleep is now

                    G#

but it's nothing to cry about  

             D#               A#

'cause we'll hold each other soon

       Cm          G#

in the blackest of rooms.

 

[Chorus]

     Cm               D#              G#            D#    A#/D

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,

illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.

     Cm              D#                 G      Cm     Cm/A#

If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks

     G#          G#m          D#       A#/D  Cm

Then I'll follow you into the dark

     G#          G#m          D#/A#

Then I'll follow you into the dark
