Champagne Problems

C G Am F x2 The song tells the story of a failed relationship and broken engagement. It describes taking the night train after a breakup, not being sure if being alone with one's thoughts or surrounded by strangers is worse. It mentions dropping the other person's hand while dancing and leaving them standing alone, heartbroken, on the landing. The chorus references champagne problems and having a ring and picture but dropping the other person's heart. Verse 2 mentions telling family but no one celebrating now. The bridge provides more context about friends and moving on from past times together. It reiterates the champagne problems reference and losing memories of the relationship.

[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 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


F
Champagne problems

[Interlude]
C G Am F
[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 Pérignon, 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
Champagne problems

[Interlude]
C G Am F x2

[Bridge]
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
F
And soon they'll have the 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 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

[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
You won't remember all my
F
Champagne problems

C G Am F
