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
A Bm G D x2
A Bm
You look at me like you've been saved
G D
From another one that got away.
A Bm
So I'm your latest cup of tea
G D
To keep your cold hands company,
(here it becomes more picking, less strumming)
A Bm
And I will warm you.
G D
I will calm you down
A Bm
Until those waters
G D
Are ready to be sailed upon,
A Bm G D
Under a honeymoon.
A Bm G D
Under a honeymoon.

You say you've never felt this way

Acting and reacting and acting and reacting
A Bm G D
Under a honeymoon.
A Bm G D
Under a honeymoon.

We know the sun is gonna rise,
G D
We tell ourselves to act surprised,
A Bm
We're comforted in our denial
G D
That dark love can be reconciled
(strum each chord once softly here)
A Bm G D
Oh please, oh please, .... reconcile me
A Bm
From all these bad actors,
All these bad endings.
(resume normal strumming)
A Bm G D

Under a honeymoon.

'cause it feels right -

or at least it's feeling good,
A A A
A Bm G D
....at least it feels good...
A Bm G D
(strum each chord once softly for the end)

I always fall in love too soon,

Caught beneath the glow of a honeymoon
