D5                            G5 
You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you 
    A5                              D5 
You asked me not to call you on the phone 
                                     G5  
But there's something I'm wanting to tell you 
     A5                            D5 
So I wrote it in the words of this song. 
 
Chorus: 
                                  G5 
I didn't know God made honky-tonk angels 
  A5                                  D5 
I might have known you'd never make a wife 
                                   G5 
You gave up the only one that ever loved you 
         A5                       D5 
And went back to The Wild Side of Life. 
 

    D5                                G5 
The glamour of the gay nightlife has lured you 
       A5                               D5 
To the places where the wine and liquor flows 
                               G5 
Where you wait to be anybody's baby 
    A5                                 D5 
And forget the truest love you'll ever know. 
 
Chorus:
