Well, you wouldn't read my letter [A] if I wrote you.
[B] You asked me not to call you [E] on the phone.
But there's something I've been [A] wanting to tell you.
[B] So I wrote it in the words [E] of this song.
I didn't know God made [A] honky-tonking death.
[B] I might have known you'd never [E] make it right.
You gave up the only one [A] that ever loved you.
[B] Then went back to the wild [E] side of life,

[A] where
the glimmer of [D] hate called you.
To [E] the places where the wine and [A] liquor flow,
where you wait to be [D] anybody's darling,
[E] and forget the truest love you'll [A] ever know.
I didn't know God made [D] honky-tonking death.
[E] I might have known you'd never [A] make it right.
You gave up the only one that [D] ever loved you.
[E] Then went back to the wild [A] side of life.
You gave up the only one that [D] ever loved you.
[E] Then went back to the wild [Am] side of life.
