[Verse]
Db
Love of mine
Bbm
someday you will die,
Gb
but I'll be close behind;
Db Ab/C
I'll follow you into the dark.
Db
No blinding light
Bbm
or tunnels to gates of white,
Gb
just our hands clasped so tight
Db Ab/C
waiting for the hint of a spark.
[Chorus]
Bbm Db Gb Db Ab/C
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,
Bbm Db Ab/C
illuminate the noes on their vacancy signs.
Bbm Db Ab Bbm
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Gb F Db
then I'll follow you into the dark.
[Verse]
Db
In Catholic school,
Bbm
as vicious as Roman rule,
Gb
I got my knuckles bruised
Db Ab/C
by a lady in black.
Db
And I held my tongue
Bbm
as she told me "Son,
Gb
fear is the heart of love".
Db Ab/C
So I never went back.
[Chorus]
Bbm Db Gb Db Ab/C
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,
Bbm Db Ab/C
illuminate the noes on their vacancy signs.
Bbm Db Ab Bbm
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Gb F Db
then I'll follow you into the dark.
[Verse]
Db
You and me
Bbm
have seen everything to see
Gb
from Bangkok to Calgary,
Db Ab/C
and the soles of your shoes
Db
are all worn down.
Bbm
The time for sleep is now
Gb
but it's nothing to cry about
Db Ab/C
'cause we'll hold each other soon
Bbm Gb
in the blackest of rooms.
[Chorus]
Bbm Db Gb Db Ab/C
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,
Bbm Db Ab/C
illuminate the noes on their vacancy signs.
Bbm Db Ab Bbm
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Gb F Db Ab/C Bbm
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Gb F Db
Then I'll follow you into the dark
