Without accompanying code my best guess is you are passing the pandas data-frame directly, instead you need to pass numpy representation of the dataframe ie., pandas.DataFrame.values as below

X_train = pd.read_csv("train.csv")
y_train = X_train['label']
X_train.drop(['label'],axis=1,inplace=True)
final_GBM.fit(X_train.values,y_train.values)
