Intro: Em A D Bm

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

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

Verse 2:
              Em
Always a reason
A                 D         Bm
  for yellin' and screamin'
        Em                     A                         D         Bm
Made me wish that school would last straight through the weekend
              Em               A                            D         Bm
And I used to think that their love was the kind that would last
                   Em                        A                    D       Bm
But I learned when love gets so broken, it's hard to remember the past

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

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