[Intro]
G#m B E B F#
G#m  B  F#  F#
G#m  B  D#  G#m  F#
E  Em  B  B


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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