[Verse 1]
G
She’s a queen and when
C
She’s fighting with me she is
G                          D
Used to getting her own way
C                                 G
She didn’t like beer, whiskey, tequila, or clear
D                  D
She only drank champagne
G
We’ll dress up fancy and we’ll
C
Go out dancing and
G                          D
That’s what she used to say
C
I never would though
   G
I clean up pretty good (I do)
D                                G
That’s one thing that would’ve changed

[Chorus]
C                    D
A’int it just a damn shame
       C                D
How it never tastes the same
C                  G
Sparkling wine was once for the good times but
D                   G
Champagne’s for the pain
C                  G
Sparkling wine was once for the good times but
D                   G
Champagne’s for the pain

[Verse 2]
G
Where’ll you go when it
C
First starts to show and the
G                D
Sun no longer shines
C                     G
Head on down to the outskirts of town
D                       D
Where the boys got the time
G
Her and me we spent last
C
New years eve and we
G                D
Toasted our new love
C                       G
Now she’s gone but I’m still hanging on
D                   G
Once it was never enough

[Chorus]
C                    D
A’int it just a damn shame
       C                D
How it never tastes the same
C                  G
Sparkling wine was once for the good times but
D                   G
Champagne’s for the pain
C                  G
Sparkling wine was once for the good times but
D                   G
Champagne’s for the pain

[Verse 3]
I’ll be
G
In the dim when she
C                      G
Comes back again with a
                          D
Glass of whiskey going down
C                         G
Spirit’s gone I guess it never belonged
D                      G
Since you a’int been around

[Chorus]
C                    D
A’int it just a damn shame
       C                D
How it never tastes the same
C                  G
Sparkling wine was once for the good times but
D                   Am
Champagne’s for the pain

Sparkling wine was once for the good times but
D                   G
Champagne’s for the pain
