Introduction:
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.
Sing Chorus
