F
Love of mine
        Dm
someday you will die,
              A#
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,
                A#
just our hands clasped so tight
         F                  C
waiting for the hint of a spark.

Chorus:
     Dm               F              A#
If heaven and hell decide that they both are
      F    C 
satisfied,
  Dm             F             C
illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.
     Dm              F
If there's no one beside you when your
 A      Dm   Dm 
soul embarks
      A#          A#m          F
then I'll follow you into the dark.

In Catholic school, as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me, "Son
Fear is the heart of love," so I never went back

Chorus

You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary and the soles of your shoes
Are all worn down, the time for sleep is now
It's nothing to cry about 'cause we'll
 hold each other soon
In the blackest of rooms

Chorus:
And if Heaven and Hell decide that they
both are satisfied
And illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

Then I'll follow you into the dark
