Verse 1

G                                         C
Some people drink champagne out under the stars
D                                      G
While others drink wine leaning over a bar
C
But all that I need dear to make me feel fine
D                                         G
Is to know that your love will forever be mine

Chorus

C                                              G
I give a ocean of diamonds a world filled with flowers
D                                  G
To hold you closely for just a few hours
G                                        C
Hear you whisper softly that you love me too
D                                       G
Would change all the dark clouds to the bluest of blue

Verse 2

G                                                     C
I don't drink their champagne and I don't drink their wine
D                                       G
So if you refuse me, my poor heart will pine
C
I'll be so lonely till the day that I die
D                                                G
And as long as I live dear, you'll still hear me cry
