[E] You wouldn't read my letter [A] if I wrote you [B] You asked me not to [F#m] call you [E] on the phone
But there's something I'm wanting [A] to tell you So [B] I wrote it in the words of [E] this song
I didn't know God made honky [A]-tonk angels I [B] might have known you'd never make [E] a wife
You gave up the only one that ever [A] loved you [F#m] And [B] went back to the wild side [E] of life
[B] [E]
As I sit here tonight just [A] playing your [B] song about a wild son
[E] As I listen to the words you've [A] been saying It [B] brings me to reason when I was a trusting [E] wife
It was honky [A]-tonk angels like [B] you say in the words [E] of this song
Too many times married men think [A] they're single And [B] they cause many a good girl to [E] go wrong
That's the truth.
That hurt my feelings.
Anybody can do it like that.
