[Verse]

C/G

Love of mine

        Am/E

someday you will die,

            F

but I'll be close behind;

             C            G

I'll follow you into the dark.

   C/G

No blinding light

              Am/E

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              F            C    G/B

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,

  Am           C              G

illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.

     Am              C                 E      Am     Am/G

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

     F          Fm          C/G

then I'll follow you into the dark.

 

[Verse]

   C/G

In Catholic school,

              Am/E

as vicious as Roman rule,

          F

I got my knuckles bruised 

     C        G

by a lady in black.

      C/G

And I held my tongue 

       Am/E

as she told me "Son, 

            F

fear is the heart of love".

     C          G

So I never went back.

 

[Chorus]

     Am               C              F            C    G/B

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,

  Am           C              G

illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.

     Am              C                 E      Am     Am/G

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

     F          Fm          C/G

then I'll follow you into the dark.

 

[Verse]

C/G

You and me

                Am/E

have seen everything to see

                F

from Bangkok to Calgary, 

        C             G

and the soles of your shoes

     C/G

are all worn down.

             Am/E

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              F            C    G/B

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,

  Am           C              G

illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.

     Am              C                 E      Am     Am/G

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

     F          Fm          C       G/B  Am

Then I'll follow you into the dark

     F          Fm          C/G

Then I'll follow you into the dark
