[Intro] Dm F Bb F C Dm F C Dm F A Dm C Bb Bbm F [1st Verse]

F
Love of mine

        Dm
someday you will die,

            Bb 
but I'll be close behind;

             F            C
I'll follow you into the dark.

   F
No blinding light

              Dm
or tunnels to gates of white,

               Bb
just our hands clasped so tight

         F                  C
waiting for the hint of a spark.

[Chorus]

     Dm              F              Bb             F   C     
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied, 

  Dm           F              C
illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs.

     Dm             F                 A      Dm     C  
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks

     Bb          Bbm          F
then I'll follow you into the dark.

[2nd Verse]

   F
In Catholic school,

              Dm
as vicious as Roman rule,

          Bb 
I got my knuckles bruised 

     F        C
by a lady in black.

      F
And I held my tongue 

       Dm
as she told me "Son, 

            Bb
fear is the heart of love".

     F          C
So I never went back.

[Chorus]

     Dm              F              Bb             F   C       
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,

  Dm           F              C
illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs.

     Dm             F                 A      Dm    C    
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks

     Bb          Bbm          F
then I'll follow you into the dark.

[3rd Verse] (tiny change)

F
You and me

                Dm
have seen everything to see

                Bb
from Bangkok to Calgary, 

        F             C
and the soles of your shoes

    F
are all worn down.

             Dm
The time for sleep is now

                    Bb
but it's nothing to cry about  

             F               C      
'cause we'll hold each other soon

       Dm          Bb
in the blackest of rooms.

[Chorus]

     Dm              F              Bb             F   C       
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,

  Dm           F              C
illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs.

     Dm             F                 A      Dm     C   
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks

     Bb          Bbm          F       Dm
then I'll follow you into the dark.

     Bb          Bbm          F
then I'll follow you into the dark.
