[Intro]
C#m
[Verse 1]
C#mLike a new day rising, like a calm before the storm,
C#mLike fog lifting from valleys on a sleeping forest floor,
C#mEyes open slowly as the dust is shaken off,
C#mTo gaze upon the wreckage that the midnight hands have wrought.
[Pre-Chorus]
And now I, AI feel my temperature risingB,
My body explodeC#m.
AI feel like somebody's watcBhing,
Like I'm not aloneF#m.
I stopped, I Evowed right Bthen and said:
[Chorus]
C#mWhatever path you take A(the path you take),
EWherever you might go B(where you might go),
C#mWhenever you deciAde to leave,
I will Efollow, I will F#mfollow.C#m
[Verse 2]
C#mWe face a crossroad never knowing what's in store,
C#mThere's an angel on my shoulder,
C#mThere's a devil at my door.
C#mShe proclaimed, "Tonight will be the greatest of our lives",
C#mAnd I said, "Don't be so sure, let's just wait until the Bmorning light".
[Pre-Chorus]
AI feel my temperature risingB,
My body explodeC#m.
AI feel like somebody's watcBhing,
Like I'm not aloneF#m.
I stopped, I Evowed right Bthen and said:
[Chorus]
C#mWhatever path you take A(the path you take),
EWherever you might go B(where you might go),
C#mWhenever you deciAde to leave,
I will Efollow, I will Bfollow. A G#m C#m E F#m C#m
[Bridge]
C#mThere in the clearingE we gathered close,
BUnder the moon's pale light, F#mwe laid out the tools.
C#m"You don't have to do this, but I forgivBe you if you don't",
AShe just looked away and said "I F#mknow."E F#m E B
[Breakdown]
C#mGripped by the midnight hands,
AWe cradle futures Bthey would prevent,
C#mGripped by the midnight Ahands.
AThe line's crossed over,
BThe dawn grows closer,
C#mLet's bite off too much,
C#mLet's jump with a blind trust,
In Awater over ourB heads.
[Chorus]
C#mWhatever path you take,A
EWherever you might go,B
C#mWhenever you deciAde to leave,
I will Efollow, I will Bfollow. F#m C#m E F#m G#m A
[Chorus 2]
I won't C#mbet on the falls you take (Athe falls you take)
I won't Elet go if you Bstart to stray,
I'll be C#mthere until you don't wake Aup, yeah,
I will Efollow, I will F#mfollow I will follow.
