(Waylon)

E A

You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you

B7 E

You asked me not to call you on the phone

A

But there's something I'm wanting to tell you

B7 E

So I wrote it in the words of this song

CHORUS:

E A

I didn't know God made honky tonk angels

B7 E

I might have known you'd never make a wife

A

You gave up the only one who ever loved you

B7 E

And went back to the wild side of life

INTRO

(PAUSE)

(Jessi)

D G

As I sit here tonight, the jukebox playin'

A7 D

Your song about the wild side of life

G

As I listen to the words you are sayin'

A7 D

It brings memories of when I was a trusting wife

CHORUS:

D G

It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels

A7 D

As you say in the words of your song

G

Too many times married men think they're single

A7 D

And it's caused many a good girl to go wrong

CHORUS (Jessi and Waylon):

D G

It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels

A7 D

I might have known you'd never make a wife

G

Too many times married men think they're single

A7 D

And go back to the wild side of life

A7 D A7 D

They go back to the wild side of life
