[Intro]
C G Am F x2

[Verse 1]
C                                  G
  You booked the night train for a reason
             Am                F
So you could sit there in this hurt
C                           G
  Bustling crowds or silent sleepers
       Am                F
You're not sure which is worse

[Chorus]
         C            
Because I dropped your 
                   G
hand while dancing
                           Am
Left you out there standing

Crestfallen on the landing
F
Champagne problems
C                               G
  Your mom's ring in your pocket
                         Am
My picture in your wallet
Your heart was glass, I dropped it

[Verse 2]
C                            G
  You told your family for a reason
    Am               F
You couldn't keep it in
C                                 G
  Your sister splashed out on the bottle
    Am             F
Now no one's celebrating

[Chorus]
C                             G
  Dom Perignon, you brought it
                             Am
No crowd of friends applauded
Your hometown skeptics called it
F
Champagne problems
C                                    G
  You had a speech, you're speechless
                                Am
Love slipped beyond your reaches
And I couldn't give a reason
F

[Verse 3]
C                                 G
  Your Midas touch on the Chevy door
                                  Am
November flush and your flannel cure
"This dorm was once a madhouse"
  F
I made a joke, "Well, it's made for me"
   C                        G
How evergreen, our group of friends
                                  Am
Don't think we'll say that word again
And soon they'll have the 
          F
nerve to deck the halls

That we once walked through
C
One for the money, two for the show
  G
I never was ready so I watch you go
    Am
Sometimes you just don't 
know the answer
     F
'Til someone's on their 
knees and asks you
     C
"She would've made such a lovely bride
       G
What a shame she's stuck 
in the head," they said
    Am
But you'll find the 
real thing instead
       F
She'll patch up your 
tapestry that I shred

[Chorus]
C                                 G
  And hold your hand while dancing
                        Am
Never leave you standing
                          F
Crestfallen on the landing

With champagne problems
C                               G
  Your mom's ring in your pocket
                          Am
Her picture in your wallet
You won't remember all my
F
Champagne problems

[Outro]
C G Am F

       You won't remember all my
