I'll follow [F] you into the [C] dark [CaddG]
[F] No blinding light, or tunnels to [Dm] gates of white
Just our hands [Bb] clasped so tight
Waiting [F] for the hint of a [C] spark [CaddG]
If [Dm] heaven and hell de [F] cide

[Bb] Then I'll follow [Bbm] you into the [F] dark
In Catholic school, as vicious as [Dm] Roman rule
I got my [Bb] knuckles bruised
By a [F] lady in [C] black [CaddG]
And [F] I held my tongue, as she [Dm] told me "Son,
Fear is the [Bb] heart of love."
So [F] I never went [C] back [CaddG]

You and me we've seen every [Dm] thing to see
From Bangkok to [Bb] Calgary
And the [F] soles of our [C] shoes [CaddG]
Are [F] all worn down, the time for [Dm] sleep is now
It's nothing to [Bb] cry about
'Cause we'll [F] hold each other [C] soon [CaddG]
