Chorus G A He was champagne, I was underaged D G Drinking on a bender G A D It was better being the pretender G A [Verse 2] D Lightning storm on my sweet sixteen G A I locked my door, told him my teenage dreams Bm A D And we embraced like the sand and the sea G A I handed over contraband parts of me Bm D After that, well I'm sure you know G He never called again A His headlights never showed Bm D The rest, I guess is history G All I see is him A Rugged in the wind Chorus G A He was champagne, I was underaged D A G Drinking on a bender A D G It was better than being the pretender Bridge A G A Hallelujah, he loves me G A Hallelujah, he wants me Bm D G A He wants me not, not, oh [Verse 3] D He was champagne A I was enraged D A G Cussing like a sailor A Bm A So much harder feeling like a failure G I was foolish A D But he was the pretender G A D
