Honky Tonk Angels Chords & Lyrics - Waylon Jennings

[INTRO]

[A] [B7] [E]

[VERSE]
(Waylon)

You [E]wouldn't read my letter if I [A]wrote you
You [B7]asked me not to call you on the [E]phone
But there's something I'm wanting to [A]tell you
So I [B7]wrote it in the words of this [E]song

[CHORUS]

I didn't [E]know God made honky tonk a[A]ngels
I [B7]might have known you'd never make a [E]wife
You gave up the only one who ever l[A]oved you
And went [B7]back to the wild side of [E]life

[VERSE]
(Jessi)

As I [D]sit here tonight, the jukebox [G]playin'
Your [A7]song about the wild side of [D]life
As I listen to the words you are [G]sayin'
It brings [A7]memories of when I was a trusting [D]wife

[CHORUS]

It wasn't [D]God who made honky tonk [G]angels
As you [A7]say in the words of your [D]song
Too many times married men think they're [G]single
And it's [A7]caused many a good girl to go [D]wrong

[CHORUS]
(Jessi and Waylon)

It wasn't [D]God who made honky tonk [G]angels
I [A7]might have known you'd never make a [D]wife
Too many times married men think they're [G]single
And go [A7]back to the wild side of [D]life
They go [A7]back to the wild side of [D]life [A7] [D]
