Am C E Am G F Fm C/G
 
 
[Verse 1]
 C/G                   Am/E
Love of mine, one day you will die
              F
But I'll be close behind
             C            G
I'll follow you into the dark
     C/G                         Am/E
No blinding lights or tunnels to gates of white
                 F
Just our hands clasped so tight
         C                  G
Waiting for the hint of a spark
 
 
[Chorus]
    Am                C
If Heaven and Hell decide
           F             C  G/B
That they both are satisfied
   Am           C             G
Illuminate the No's on their vacancy signs
     Am              C
If there's no one beside you
           E      Am  G
When your soul embarks
     F            Fm           C/G
Then I'll follow you into the dark
 
 
[Verse 2]
    C/G                           Am/E
In Catholic school, as vicious as Roman rule
         F                     C       G
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
      C/G                    Am/E
And I held my tongue, as she told me, son
            F
Fear is the heart of love
     C          G
So I never went back
 
 
[Chorus]
    Am                C
So if Heaven and Hell decide
           F             C  G/B
That they both are satisfied
   Am           C             G
Illuminate the No's on their vacancy signs
     Am              C
If there's no one beside you
           E      Am  G/B  E
When your soul embarks
     F            Fm           C/G
Then I will follow you into the dark
  Fm    C
If Heaven and Hell decide
          E       Am/E
That they both are satisfied
   Am           C             G
Illuminate the No's on their vacancy signs
     Am              C
If there's no one beside you
           E      Am  G
When your soul embarks
           E      Am  G/B    Am
Then I'll follow you into the dark
     F            Fm           C/G
Then I'll follow you into the dark
