Dm F C (Barchord)
Dm F A Dm C Bb Bbm (Into F with F-C note progression beginning)
Verse One:
F (F-C Root note going)
Love of mine,
Dm (D-A Root note going)
Someday you will die
Bb (strumming)
But I will be close behind
F C
I will follow, you into the dark
F (F-C Root note going)
No blinding light
Dm (D-A Root note going)
Or tunnels to gates of white
Bb
Just our hands clasped so tight
F C
Waiting for, the hint of a spark
Chorus
Dm F Bb F C
If heaven and hell decide, that they both are satisfied
Dm F C (bar chord)
Illuminate the "no's", on their vacancy signs
Dm F A Dm C
If there's no one beside you, when your soul embarks
Bb Bbm F (Begin F-C root again)
Then I will follow you into the dark
Verse Two:
F (F-C root note going)
Catholic school
Dm (D-A root note)
As vicious as roman rule
Bb
I got my knuckles bruised
F C
By a lady in black
F (F-C root note) Dm Bb
And I held my tongue as she told me, "son, fear is the heart of love."
F C
So I never went back
Chorus Two (Same):
Dm F Bb F C
If heaven and hell decide, that they both are satisfied
Dm F C (bar chord)
Illuminate the "no's", on their vacancy signs
Dm F A Dm C
If there's no one beside you, when your soul embarks
Bb Bbm F (Begin F-C root again)
Then I will follow you into the dark
Verse Three:
F Dm
You and me, have seen everything to see
Bb
From Bangkok to Calgary
F C (barchord)
And the soles of your shoes
F Dm
Are all worn down, the time for sleep is now
Bb
But it's nothing to cry about
F C Dm Bbm
Because we'll hold each other soon, in the blackest of rooms
Continue strumming the Bb minor an extra measure before the last chorus.
Chorus Three
Dm F Bb F C
If heaven and hell decide, that they both are satisfied
Dm F C (bar chord)
Illuminate the "no's", on their vacancy signs
Dm F A Dm C
If there's no one beside you, when your soul embarks
Bb Bbm F run down to Dm on D string
Then I will follow you into the dark
Repeat last line, ending on F.
