Intro: 
Am C F(bar)C G 
Am C G (bar) 
Am C E Am G F Fm (Into F with F C note progression beginning) 

Verse One: 
C (G root note) 
Love of mine 
                 Am (D root note) 
Someday you will die 
                      F  
But I will be close behind 
           C                  G 
I will follow, you into the dark 

       C 
No blinding light 
                        Am 
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               F           C G 
If heaven and hell decide, that they both are satisfied 
Am               C                 G(bar) 
Illuminate the 'no's', on their vacancy signs 
Am                        C              E      Am G 
If there's no one beside you, when your soul embarks 
F              Fm                       C (G root note) 
Then I will follow you into the dark 

Verse Two: 

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 

Verse Three:  
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 
But it's nothing to cry about   
Because we'll hold each other soon 
Am                   Fm 
in the blackest of rooms  

Fm 

Chorus Three  
Am                   C                F            C G 
If heaven and hell decide, that they both are satisfied 
Am               C                 G(bar) 
Illuminate the 'no's', on their vacancy signs 
Am                        C              E      Am G 
If there's no one beside you, when your soul embarks 
F                 Fm            C     
Then I will follow you into the dark
