[Verse]
C/G
Love of mine
        Am/E
someday you will die,
            F
but I'll be close behind;
             C            G
I'll follow you into the dark.
   C/G
No blinding light
              Am/E
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/B
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,
  Am           C              G
illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.
     Am              C                 E      Am     Am/G
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
     F           Fm           C/G
then I'll follow you into the dark.
 
[Verse]
   C/G
In Catholic school,
              Am/E
as vicious as Roman rule,
          F
I got my knuckles bruised 
     C        G
by a lady in black.
      C/G
And I held my tongue 
       Am/E
as she told me "Son, 
            F
fear is the heart of love".
     C          G
So I never went back.
 
[Chorus]
     Am               C              F             C    G/B
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,
  Am           C              G
illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.
     Am              C                 E      Am     Am/G
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
     F           Fm           C/G
then I'll follow you into the dark.
 
[Verse]
C/G
You and me
                Am/E
have seen everything to see
                F
from Bangkok to Calgary, 
        C             G
and the soles of your shoes
     C/G
are all worn down.
             Am/E
The time for sleep is now
                    F
but it's nothing to cry about  
             C               G
'cause we'll hold each other soon
       Am          F
in the blackest of rooms.
 
[Chorus]
     Am               C              F             C    G/B
If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,
  Am           C              G
illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs.
     Am              C                 E      Am     Am/G
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
     F           Fm           C       G/B  Am
Then I'll follow you into the dark
     F           Fm           C/G
Then I'll follow you into the dark

The tabs that're displayed when you hover the mouse over the chords aren't what I had in mind. They're the right chords or course but they seem to be an overly complicated way to play them. I play the G/B x 2 0 0 0 3.

Awesome tab man, it sounds perfect to me. Also, is there an easier way to play G/B other than 7 10 9 7 8 7?

Really good tab. Yeah the slash chords are a little tricky. You can actually play the G/B x 2 0 0 3 0. Just a small correction on the previous post.
