[Opening]
[C] [G] [Am] [F]
[C]You booked the night train for a [G]reason.
So you could [Am]sit there in this [F]hurt.
[C]Bustling crowds or silent [G]sleepers.
You’re [Am]not sure which is [F]worse.
[verse 2]
Because I [C]dropped your hand while [G]dancing, left you out there [Am]standing
[Am]Crestfallen on the landing, [F]champagne problems
[C]Your mom’s ring in your [G]pocket, my picture in your [Am]wallet
[Am]Your heart was glass, I dropped it, [F]champagne problems
[verse 3]
[C] [G] [Am] [F]
[C]You told your family for a [G]reason
You [Am]couldn’t keep it [F]in
[C]Your sister splashed out on the [G]bottle
Now [Am]no one’s celeb[F]rating
[verse 4]
[C]Dom Pérignon, you brought [G]it, no crowd of friends [Am]applauded
[Am]Your hometown skeptics called it, [F]champagne problems
[C]You had a speech, you’re [G]speechless, love slipped beyond your [Am]reaches
[Am]And I couldn’t give a reason, [F]champagne problems
[verse 5]
[C] [G] [Am] [F]
[C]Your Midas touch on the Chevy [G]door, November flush and your flannel [Am]cure.
[Am]”This dorm was once a madhouse”, I [F]made a joke, “Well, it’s made for me”
How [C]evergreen, our group of [G]friends, don’t think we’ll say that word [Am]again.
And soon they’ll have the nerve to [F]deck the halls, [F]that we once walked through.
[verse 6]
[C]One for the money, two for the show, I [G]never was ready so I watch you go
Some[Am]times you just don’t know the answer, ’til [F]someone’s on their knees and asks you
“She [C]would’ve made such a lovely bride, what a [G]shame she’s fucked in the head,” they said
But [Am]you’ll find the real thing instead, she’ll [F]patch up your tapestry that I shred
[verse 7]
[C]And hold your hand while [G]dancing, never leave you [Am]standing
Crestfallen on the [F]landing, [F]with champagne problems
[C]Your mom’s ring in your [G]pocket, her picture in your [Am]wallet
[Am]You won’t remember all my [F]champagne problems
[Closing]
[C] [G] [Am]You won’t remember all my, [F]champagne problems
[outro]
[C] [G] [Am] [F]
