Em A D Bm


[Verse 1]
  Em
7pm,
A              D     Bm
   he's late again
         Em                A      
In the kitchen, Mom's just waiting
              D     Bm
 there for him
            Em       A        
And I pretend I don't know what 
              D      Bm
is coming next
            Em                     
I go to my room, shut the door, 
       A                           
turn the lights out and lay down in
D     Bm
 bed


[Chorus]
     Em                       A   
Oh I pull the sheets over my head 
                      D      
and think back to when it was 
  Bm
different
     Em                      A    
Oh I pull the sheets over my head 
                         D      Bm
so that I can't hear them
       Em     A                    
Under covers, they don't hate each 
D        Bm
other
          Em      A           
And under covers, they're still 
          D         Bm
perfect lovers
      Em                 A    
Under covers, they don't want a 
            D       Bm
different life

          Em               A      
And under covers, he's her 
            D      Bm
husband, she's his wife


[Verse 2]
              Em
Always a reason
A                 D         Bm
  for yellin' and screamin'
        Em                     A  
Made me wish that school would 
                       D         Bm
last straight through the weekend
              Em               A  
And I used to think that their 
                          D        
love was the kind that would last
 Bm

                   Em          
But I learned when love gets so 
              A                  
broken, it's hard to remember the 
  D       Bm
past


[Chorus]
     Em                      A    
Oh I pull the sheets over my head 
                D
and imagine them
Bm
   in love again
     Em                      A    
Oh I pull the sheets over my head 
                         D      Bm
so that I can't hear them
       Em     A                    
Under covers, they don't hate each 
D        Bm
other
          Em      A           
And under covers, they're still 
          D         Bm
perfect lovers
      Em                 A    
Under covers, they don't want a 
            D       Bm
different life
          Em               A      
And under covers, he's her 
            D      Bm
husband, she's his wife


[Chorus]
     Em                      A    
Oh I pull the sheets over my head 
                D
and imagine them
Bm
   in love again
     Em                      A    
Oh I pull the sheets over my head 
                         D      Bm
so that I can't hear them
       Em     A                    
Under covers, they don't hate each 
D        Bm
