[Verse]
D#
Love of mine
        Cm
someday you will die,
            G#
but I'll be close behind;
            D#            A#
I'll follow you into the dark.


[Verse]
   D#
No blinding light
              Cm
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#   
  If heaven and hell decide
           G#             D#    A#
that they both are satisfied,
  Cm           D#    
  illuminate the noes
          A#
on their vacancy signs.
     Cm              D#   
  If there's no one beside
               G      Cm     A#
you when your soul embarks
     G#           
  then I'll follow
  G#m           D#
you into the dark.


[Verse]
   D#
In Catholic school,
              Cm
as vicious as Roman rule,
         G#
I got my knuckles bruised
     D#       A#
by a lady in black.


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


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


[Verse]
D#
You and me
               Cm
have seen everything to see
                G#
from Bangkok to Calgary,
        D#             A#
and the soles of your shoes


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