Champagne on the Roof chords by Frank Christian
Skip chords and lyrics
Verse 1
(D major) We sipped champagne
up on the roof,
(G major) caught up in some private (D major) spoof,
I (F major) never knew how hard (E minor) it was (Asus4) to laugh. (D major)
We played like in a foreign flick
While the (G major) fireplace lighted a (D major) candlestick
Soon (F major) you'd disappear
(E minor) right with (Asus4) their draft (D major)
(A major) You could just (G major) look at me
Tell (D major) me that the face (A major) I see
Is not (B major) the same one once (B minor) overjoyed (A major)
And soon I'd (G major) be all alone,
a (D major) spark from a wheel of a (A major) grinding stone,
an (B major) other used to be,
(B minor) now a (C sharp minor) lonely boy. (F sharp major) (E flat major)
My (B minor) win dows are whipped with rain,
drops (Esus4) roll down the pan,
don't you (E minor) turn away in shame. (A major)
The (D major) night grows cold,
the light grows dim,
your (G major) speech gets slurred
for (D major) too much gin.
It (F major) doesn't seem to help
(E minor) things (Asus4) much at all (D major)
Tempers flare, the air gets thick
In (G major) sides turn and I'm (D major) feeling sick
Is (F major) this the pride that goes (E minor)
before (Asus4) a fall? (D major)
(A major) And you could just (G major) look at me
Tell (D major) me that the face (A major) I see
is not (B major) the same one once (B minor) so overjoyed
(A major)
Verse 2
soon I'd be (G major) all alone
a (D major) spark from a wheel of a (A major) grinding stone
(B major) an other used to be (B minor) now a lonely (C sharp minor) boy (F sharp major)
Verse 3
well my (B minor) windows are ripped with rain
(Esus4) drops roll down the pane
don't (E minor) turn away and change (A major) (D major) (G major) guitar solo (D major) (F major) (E minor)
(Asus4) (D major) (G major) (D major) (F major)
(E minor) (Asus4) (D major)
Don't (Asus4) you (D major) think I could look
into those eyes,
(G major) see for how long, how (D major) paralyzed
the (F major) fear of letting go (E minor) had
(Asus4) driven me? (D major)
Suspicion was the word
you used to (G major) describe
how we both (D major) confused each (F major) other's
lost (E minor) weekend fantasy. (Asus4) (D major)
An (A major) d you could just (G major) look at me
and (D major) tell me that the face (A major) I see
is not (B major) the same one once (B minor)
(Esus4) (A major) overjoyed.
And soon I'd be (G major) all alone,
a (D major) spark from a wheel of a (A major) grinding stone,
an (B major) other used to
Now, (B minor) (C sharp minor) boy (F sharp major) (F sharpsus4) (F sharp major)
My (B minor) windows are whipped with rain
Drops (Esus4) (E major) roll down the pane
Don't (Esus4) (E minor) turn away
In shame (A major)
We (D major) sipped champagne up
on the roof
Caught (G major) up in some private (D major) school
But (F major) little did I know (E minor) the laugh (Asus4)
s on (D major) me
(G major) (D major) (E minor)
