I Will Follow You Into The Dark

[Intro]
C#m E A E B
C#m  E  B  B
C#m  E  G#  C#m  B
A  Am  E  E


[Verse]
E
Love of mine
        C#m
someday you will die,
            A
but I'll be close behind;
            E            B
I'll follow you into the dark.


[Verse]
   E
No blinding light
              C#m
or tunnels to gates of white,
               A
just our hands clasped so tight
        E                  B
waiting for the hint of a spark.


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


[Verse]
   E
In Catholic school,
              C#m
as vicious as Roman rule,
         A
I got my knuckles bruised
     E       B
by a lady in black.


[Verse]
      E
And I held my tongue
       C#m
as she told me "Son,
            A
fear is the heart of love".
     E          B
So I never went back.


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


[Verse]
E
You and me
               C#m
have seen everything to see
                A
from Bangkok to Calgary,
        E             B
and the soles of your shoes


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


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