[Verse 1]
Em
Where do we go from here?
Em
When these words have been unspoken
Em
We carry this burden through the gentle summer rain
Em
The convoy is still, still and weeping
Em
Yet I don't feel anything, but these walls around


[Chorus]
          C                       Em
"And the candles on the cathedral walls
               Dsus2                  Am
Chase the weak light under the saints eyes
      C            Em                      Dsus2
Over you, and your shattered words for the ones you lost
          Am            C          Em
In your mourning you're alone, so alone."


[Verse 2]
Em
This silence speaks a million words
Em
Words of comfort so shallow
Em
How I wish even for one tear
Em
But for my heart it is too late
Em
Where do I go when the sorrow turns to hate
Em
Where do I go from here?


[Bridge 1]
   G5  E5   F5  E5          G5  E5  F5  F5
The guardian angels quiet and near
G5  E5   F5  E5          G5  E5  F5  F5
Slowly turning away, for hell is surely here
G5  E5   F5  E5    G5  E5  F5  F5
Every step towards the hole in the ground I rot
G5  E5   F5  E5            G5  E5  F5  F5
Carrying your white coffin, my heart wide shut

I will follow you,      earth to earth
        F  E  C  B       F     B    C      F  E  C B  E
I will follow you,      ashes to ashes
        F  E  C  B       F     B    C      F  E  C B  E
I will follow you,      dust to dust
        F  E  C  B       F     B    C
I will follow you!


[Bridge 2]
G5 E5 F5 E5
How I wish

G5  E5  F5  F5
even for one tear
     G5     E5    F5       E5
But for my heart it is too late
G5    E5    F5      E5
When sorrow turns to hate


[Chorus]

"And the candles on the cathedral walls
               Dsus2                  Am
Chase the weak light under the saints eyes
      C            Em                      Dsus2
Over you, and your shattered words for the ones you lost

In your mourning you're alone, so alone."
