D                                G
You would'nt read my letter if I wrote you,

    A                               D
You asked me not to call you on the phone.

                                  G
But there's something I wanted to tell you,

     A                             D
So I wrote it in the words of this song.
[Chorus]
                                  G
I did'nt know God made honky-tonk angels,

  A                                  D
I might have never know you'd make a wife.

                                  G
You gave up the only one who ever loved you,

         A                        D
And went back to the wild side of life.

D                                   G
The glamour of the gain my life has lurred you,

       A                                D
To the places where the wine and liqour flow.

                               G
Where you wait to be anybody's baby,

       A                               D
And forget the truest love you'll ever know.
