Wild Side Of Life (Honky Tonk Angel) Hank Williams
Verse 1
You [C]wouldn't read my letter if I [F]wrote you
You [G]asked me not to call you on the [C]phone
But there's something I'm wanting to [F]tell you
So I [G]wrote it in the words of this [C]song.
Chorus
[C]I didn't know God made honky tonk [F]angels
I [G]might have known you'd never make a [C]wife
You gave up the only one that ever [F]loved you
And went [G]back to the wild side of [C]life.
Verse 2
The [C]glamor of the gay night life has [F]lured you
To the places where the wine and liquor [C]flows
Where you wait to be anybody's [F]baby
And forget the truest love you'll ever [C]know.
Chorus
[C]I didn't know God made honky tonk [F]angels
I [G]might have known you'd never make a [C]wife
You gave up the only one that ever [F]loved you
And went [G]back to the wild side of [C]life.
Verse 3
It [C]hurt me to know that you don't [F]love me,
Though [G]I know our love's forever [C]gone,
And it killed my soul and pride dear in[F]side me,
When I [G]saw you in that stranger's arms so [C]long.
Verse 4
I'll [C]just live my life alone with mem-ries [F]of you,
And [G]dream of kisses you traded for my [C]tears,
And no one will ever know how much I [F]loved you,
And I [G]pray that you'll be happy through the [C]years.
Chorus
[C]I didn't know God made honky tonk [F]angels
I [G]might have known you'd never make a [C]wife
You gave up the only one that ever [F]loved you
And went [G]back to the wild side of [C]life.
