    G              C
Throw the body in the lake

         Em    D         C      G
And take a chance that no one finds out

    Em      D         C      G
And take a chance that no one finds out


         G                    C
Your life is stories that you fake 

    Em      D          C
And rake like leaves behind you


   G                 C
So row the boat into the bay 

  Em      D         C
And say you've lost your compass


        G                   C
Your life is pieces that you play

     Em     D         C
And maybe they will trump us


 G                       C
Blow the kiss you never felt

     Em    D         C
And belt your wife for smiling


 G               C
Love is lying by yourself 

   Em     D    C         G
Alone awake and crying


  G
Honey 

 G     Em   C        G
Honey, even if you knew

Em   C       G
Even if you knew

   D                                                  
What lies, what lies behind that honeymoon


Bridge: G  C  Em  D  (2x)


 G                          C
Sew the ribbon round your throat

    Em       D          C
And coat your mouth with honey


         G                       C
Your life is books you never wrote

     Em      D        C
And tote only for money


 G                   C
Dig a hole into the ground

     Em       D         C
And pound the earth in outrage


         G                            C
Your life is treasures that you've found

       Em        D           C
And drowned in lakes that you've made


 G                       C
Show the soul you never had

   Em      D         C
A fad that will not save you


       G                       C
Your life is hiding all the bad

     Em      D         C 
And sad smiles that break you


Chorus


Bridge


  G                                  C
Honey if you took back all the promises and rings 

             Em                                    D
And little things and when he sings would you still know 

  D
What lies behind that honeymoon


 G                                     C
Movies that you make and you hit stop and you hit play 

         Em                                  D
And the scenes are day by day would you still know 

  D
What lies behind that honeymoon


  G                                        C
Comb through all facts to learn his words are rather heady 

            Em                              D
Says he's ready to go steady would you still know 

   D
What lies behind that honeymoon


 G                                               C
Pies that you will bake when you are sittin in the kitchen 

          Em                                        D
Are you listenin to what your missing would you still know

  D
What lies behind that honeymoon


 G                                     C               
Be the first to crack when your new love must be measured

         Em                                    D
Under pressure under pleasure would you still know

 D
What lies behind that honeymoon


  G                             C
Suckle on the lack of all the hugs you never got

         Em                                       D 
And if you rot it's what you bought would you still know 

 D
What lies behind that honeymoon


 G                                        C
Dew lies on the haystack you were tied and you were tethered 

        Em                                        D
Like a feather in stormy weather would you still know 

 D
What lies behind that honeymoon


 G                                   C 
Be the first to crack when your new love must be measured 
 
          Em                                    D
Under pressure under pleasure would you still know 

 D
What lies behind that honeymoon


Strum hard G


 Em       C            G
What lies beyond the honeymoon.

 Em      C            G
What lies beyond the honeymoon.
