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
C
G
Because I dropped your 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

You told your family for a reason
Am
F
You couldn't keep it in

C
G
Dom Pérignon, you brought it
Am
No crowd of friends applauded Your hometown skeptics called it

Champagne problems
C

You had a speech, you're speechless
Am

Champagne problems

Your Midas touch on the Chevy door
Am
November flush and your flannel cure "This dorm was once a madhouse"

I made a joke, "Well, it's made for me"

G
How evergreen, our group of friends
Am

C
One for the money, two for the show
G
I never was ready so I watch you go

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 fucked in the head," they said
Am
But you'll find the real thing instead
F
She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred
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
