[Verse] C/G Love of mine Am/E someday you will die, F but I'll be close behind; CG I'll follow you into the dark. C/G No blinding light Am/E or tunnels to gates of white, F just our hands clasped so tight CG waiting for the hint of a spark.
[Chorus] AmCFCG/B If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied, AmCG illuminate the noes on their vacancy signs. AmCEAmAm/G If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks FFmC/G then I'll follow you into the dark.
[Verse] C/G In Catholic school, Am/E as vicious as Roman rule, F I got my knuckles bruised CG by a lady in black. C/G And I held my tongue Am/E as she told me "Son, F fear is the heart of love". CG So I never went back.
