Under A Honeymoon Ukulele

(ver. 1)
The Good Life
The Good Life is the side project of Tim Kasher from Cursive. I've had trouble finding
tabs for The Good Life, so I decided to try my hand at it. I've only been playing guita
 a year or so, so my ear may be off, feel free to correct me.

Intro 

F  Am  F  C    x2

F                Am 
You look at me like you've been saved
F                 C
F                Am
So I'm your latest cup of tea
F                C
To keep your cold hands company, 
(here it becomes more picking, less strumming)
F            Am
And I will warm you. 
F           C    
I will calm you down
F           Am   
Until those waters
F           C
Are ready to be sailed upon,
F        Am         F    C
    Under a honeymoon. 
F        Am         F    C
    Under a honeymoon.

F                   Am
You say you've never felt this way
F                  C
At least not this early.
F                Am
We decide to hold nothing back -
F                 C
We'll act how we want to act. 
F          Am       F          C
And so, eventually, we became pretty good actors.
F          Am        F         C
Acting and reacting and acting and reacting
F        Am         F    C
    Under a honeymoon. 
F        Am         F    C
    Under a honeymoon.

F             Am
We know the sun is gonna rise,
F             C
We tell ourselves to act surprised,
F              Am
We're comforted in our denial 
F               C
That dark love can be reconciled
(strum each chord once softly here)
F        Am          F     C
Oh please, oh please, .... reconcile me
F           Am

All these bad endings.
(resume normal strumming)

F  Am  F  C

F        Am         F    C
    Under a honeymoon. 
F        Am         F    C
    Under a honeymoon.
F                      Am        
We want what we're not and we don't want to stop
F
'cause it feels right -
C
or at least it's feeling good,

F  F  F
F  Am   F    C
....at least it feels good...
F  Am   F    C

(strum each chord once softly for the end)
F                 Am
I always fall in love too soon, 
F                            C
Caught beneath the glow of a honeymoon
