Verse 
(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 

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
Verse (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
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 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
