    A                A           D          D
You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you,

    E               E               A       A
you asked me not to call you on the phone.

            A             A          D        D
But there's something I'm wanting to tell you,

      E               E             A       A
so, I wrote it in the words of this song.
[Chorus]
         A             A          D          D
I didn't know God made Honky Tonk angels,

  E                      E            A       A
I might have known you'd never make a wife.

         A           A             D        D
You gave up the only one that ever loved you

         E           E            A       A
and went back to the wild side of life.
[Interlude] | A | A | D | D | | E | E | A | A | | A | A | D | D | | E | E | A | A | [Verse 2]
          A             A                 D          D
Well, the glamor of the gay nightlife has lured you

       E                E               A       A
to the places where the wine and liquor flow,

          A          A         D          D
where you wait to be anybody's baby

       E              E                A       A
and forget the truest love you'll ever know.
[End-Chorus]
         A             A          D          D
I didn't know God made Honky Tonk angels,

  E                      E            A       A
I might have known you'd never make a wife.

         A           A             D        D
You gave up the only one that ever loved you

         E           E            A       A
and went back to the wild side of life,

         E           E            A** D**     A* E* A*     (A7*)
and went back to the wild side of life.
