I will follow you into the Dark (6th hour choice)


C (4)
Love of mine
       Am (4)
someday you will die,
           F (4)
but I'll be close behind;
            C   (2)       G (2)
I'll follow you into the dark.

  C 4
No blinding light
             Am 4
or tunnels to gates of white,
              F 4
just our hands clasped so tight
        C   2               G 2
waiting for the hint of a spark.


Chorus:
    
    Am   (2)        C   (2)         F    (2)    C (1)   G/B (1)   
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,
 Am  (2)       C (2)             G (4)
illuminate the nos on their vacancy signs.
    Am (2)             C    (2)        E (2)   Am  (1)   G (1)    
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
    F (4)                    C (4)
then I'll follow you into the dark.


2nd Verse:(same chords)
    
  C 4
In Catholic school,
             Am 4
as vicious as Roman rule,
         F 4
I got my knuckles bruised
    C  2      G 2
by a lady in black.

     C 4
And I held my tongue
      Am 4
as she told me "Son,
           F 4
fear is the heart of love".
    C 2         G 2
So I never went back.



Chorus:
    
    Am   (2)        C   (2)         F    (2)    C (1)   G/B (1)   
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,
 Am  (2)       C (2)             G (4)
illuminate the nos on their vacancy signs.
    Am (2)             C    (2)        E (2)   Am  (1)   G (1)    
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
    F (4)                    C (4)
then I'll follow you into the dark.


3rd Verse:(tiny change)

C 4
You and me
               Am 4
have seen everything to see
               F 4
from Bangkok to Calgary,
       C 2            G 2
and the soles of your shoes

   C 4
are all worn down.
            Am 4
The time for sleep is now
                   F 4
but it's nothing to cry about  
            C 2              G  2    
'cause we'll hold each other soon
      Am          F
in the blackest of rooms.



Chorus:
    
    Am   (2)        C   (2)         F    (2)    C (1)   G/B (1)   
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,
 Am  (2)       C (2)             G (4)
illuminate the nos on their vacancy signs.
    Am (2)             C    (2)        E (2)   Am  (1)   G (1)    
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
    F (4)                    C (4)
then I'll follow you into the dark.
