Death Cab For Cutie, I Will Follow You Into The Dark (2005)
Key: :[Dm] (w: Ben Gibbard)
INTRO:
[Dm] [F] [Bb] [F] [C/E] [Dm] [F] [C]
[Dm] [F] [A] [Dm] [Dm/C] [Bb] [Bbm] [F/C]
VERSE 1:
[F/C] Love of mine, someday
[Dm/A] you will die,
But I'll be
[Bb] close behind; I'll follow
[F] you into the
[C] dark.
No
[F/C] blinding light, or tunnels to
[Dm/A] gates of white,
Just our hands
[Bb] clasped so tight, waiting
[F] for the hint of a
[C] spark.
CHORUS:
If
[Dm] heaven and hell dec-
[F]-ide, that they
[Bb] both are satis-
[F]-fied
[F/E] il-
[Dm]-luminate the
[F] no's on their
[C] vacancy signs
If
[Dm] there's no one be-
[F]-side you, when your
[A] soul em-
[Dm]-barks
[Dm/C]
Then
[Bb] I'll follow
[Bbm] you into the
[F/C] dark.
VERSE 2:
In
[F/C] Catholic school, as vicious as
[Dm/A] Roman rule,
I got my
[Bb] knuckles bruised, by a
[F] lady in
[C] black.
I
[F/C] held my tongue, as she
[Dm/A] told me "Son,
Fear is the
[Bb] heart of love". So I
[F] never went
[C] back.
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE 3:
[F/C] You and me, have seen every-
[Dm/A]-thing to see,
From Bangkok to
[Bb] Calgary, and the
[F] soles of your
[C] shoes
Are
[F/C] all worn down, the time for
[Dm/A] sleep is now;
It's nothing to
[Bb] cry about; 'cause we'll
[F] hold each other
[C] soon
In the
[Dm] blackest of
[Bb] rooms
REPEAT CHORUS:
Then
[Bb] I'll follow
[Bbm] you into the
[F] dark
