Jam Along & Learn...
[E] You wouldn't read my letter [A] if I wrote you You [B] asked me not to [F#m] call you [E] on the phone
But there's something I'm [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-tonk angels I [B] might have known you'd never [E] make a wife
You gave up the only one that [A] ever loved you [F#m] And [B] went back to the wild [E] side of life
[B] [E]
As I sit in the air at night with [A] your box playing [B] Your song about the wild [E] side of life
As I listen to the words [A] you've been saying It [B] brings memories of when I was a [E] trusting wife
It was God who made [A] honky-tonk angels [B] Like you say in the words of [E] this song

[E] You wouldn't read my letter [A] if I wrote you You [B] asked me not to [F#m] call you [E] on the phone _

As I sit in the air at night with [A] your box playing _ [B] Your song about the wild [E] side of life _
As I listen to the words [A] you've been saying It [B] brings memories of when I was a [E] trusting wife
It was God who made [A] honky-tonk angels _ [B] Like you say in the words of [E] this song
Too many times married [A] men think they're single And [B] they cause many a good girl to [E] go _ home
That's the truth
That _ _ _ _ hurt my feelings _ _

I _ _ didn't know [E] God made honky [A]-tonk angels I [B] might have known you'd [E] never make a wife
_ Too many times married men [A] think they're single And [B] go back to the wild [E] side of life _ _ _ _ _
