So I wrote this out when I was like 17 and hadn't looked at in years until I logged in, 
cheers for the snarky comments; I have taken them into consideration and fixed the chord 
progression at the end. Sounds fairly legit if you can get the picking pattern down right.
(Also to the smart dude who made a comment about a bunch of the lyrics missing - props
to you if you can pick out which ones they are, because I can't find them, sir.)

Capo 5th fret, standard tuning


[Intro]
        
    
             

[Verse 1]
             
Love of mine, 

         
someday you wi

ll die,
              
But I will be 

   
close behind,
             
I'll follow yo

k.

             
No blinding li

s to gates of 

white,
              
Just our hands

    
 clasped so ti

ght,
             
Waiting for th

              
e hint of a sp


ark.

[Chorus]
            
If heaven and 

             
hell decide th

             
at they both a

                
re satisfied,
            
Illuminate the

             
 no's on their

 
 vacancy signs

,
            
if there's no 

             
one beside you

             
 when your sou

        
l embarks,
             
I will follow

[Verse 2]
             
Catholic schoo

              
l, as vicious 

    
as Roman rule,
             
I got my knuck

              
les bruised by

             
 a lady in bla


ck.
             
I held my tong

            
ue, as she tol

              
d me "Son, fea

           
r is the heart

 of love"
             
So I never wen

I will follow

[Verse 3]
             
You and me hav

ing to see,
              
From Bangkok t

    
o Calgary,
             
And the soles 

           
of your shoes,

             
Are all worn d
