[Verse]

A/E

Love of mine

        F#m/C#

someday you will die,

            D

but I'll be close behind;

             A            E

I'll follow you into the dark.

   A/E

No blinding light

              F#m/C#

or tunnels to gates of white,

               D

just our hands clasped so tight

         A                  E

waiting for the hint of a spark. 

 

[Chorus]

     F#m               A              D            A    E/G#

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,

  F#m           A              E

illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.

     F#m              A                 C#      F#m     F#m/E

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

     D          Dm          A/E

then I'll follow you into the dark.

 

[Verse]

   A/E

In Catholic school,

              F#m/C#

as vicious as Roman rule,

          D

I got my knuckles bruised 

     A        E

by a lady in black.

      A/E

And I held my tongue 

       F#m/C#

as she told me "Son, 

            D

fear is the heart of love".

     A          E

So I never went back.

 

[Chorus]

     F#m               A              D            A    E/G#

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,

  F#m           A              E

illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.

     F#m              A                 C#      F#m     F#m/E

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

     D          Dm          A/E

then I'll follow you into the dark.

 

[Verse]

A/E

You and me

                F#m/C#

have seen everything to see

                D

from Bangkok to Calgary, 

        A             E

and the soles of your shoes

     A/E

are all worn down.

             F#m/C#

The time for sleep is now

                    D

but it's nothing to cry about  

             A               E

'cause we'll hold each other soon

       F#m          D

in the blackest of rooms.

 

[Chorus]

     F#m               A              D            A    E/G#

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,

  F#m           A              E

illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.

     F#m              A                 C#      F#m     F#m/E

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

     D          Dm          A       E/G#  F#m

Then I'll follow you into the dark

     D          Dm          A/E

Then I'll follow you into the dark
