D (D7) G You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you
YA7ou asked me not to call you on the Dphone (D7) G But there's something I'm wanting to tell you So I A7wrote it in the words of this sDong.
[Chorus] (D7) G I Didn't know God made honky tonk angels
IA7 might have known you'd never make a Dwife You gave up the only onD7e that ever lovedG you And went bA7ack to the wild side of lDife.
D (D7) G The glamor of the gay night life has lured you
TA7o the places where the wine and liqDuor flows (D7) G Where you wait to be anybody's baby And forget A7the truest love you'll evDer know.
[Chorus] (D7) G I Didn't know God made honky tonk angels
IA7 might have known you'd never make a Dwife You gave up the only onD7e that ever lovedG you And went bA7ack to the wild side of lDife.
D (D7) G It hurt me to know that you don't love me,
A7Though I know our love's forever goDne, (D7) G And it killed my soul and pride dear inside me, When I saw you inA7 that stranger's arms so Dlong.
[Chorus] (D7) G I Didn't know God made honky tonk angels
IA7 might have known you'd never make a Dwife You gave up the only onD7e that ever lovedG you And went bA7ack to the wild side of lDife.
D (D7) G I'll just live my life alone with mem-ries of you,
A7And dream of kisses you traded for myD tears, (D7) G And no one will ever know how much I loved you, AndA7 I pray that you'll be happy through theD years.
[Chorus] (D7) G I Didn't know God made honky tonk angels
IA7 might have known you'd never make a Dwife You gave up the only onD7e that ever lovedG you And went bA7ack to the wild side of lDife.
