on up.
Bm        A      G           A      F#m
Footsteps follow down to the hollow sound
     G
Torn up

    Em                     Bm
And you would go to Mykonos
       Em                          Bm
With a vision of the channel coast
      Em                    Bm
And a sun to maybe dissipate
        F#m               G   A
Shadows of the mess you made
