_ _ You wouldn't read my letter _ if [C] I wrote you.
[E] _ _ [A] _
_ _ [D] You asked me not to call you on the [G] phone. _ _ _
_ [C] [G] But there's something [Gm] I'm _ [G] wanting [C] to tell [E] you.
_ [A] _
So [D] I wrote it in the words of [G] this _ [C#m] _ [C] [G] song.
_ [Em] _ _ [G] _ _ They made _ honky [C]-tonk [Em] angels.
[A#] _ [A] _
_ _ [D] I'm mad _ _ you'd never [Bm] make [G] a [E] wife.
_ [G] _
_ [F#] You [G] gave up the only one who [C] really loved you.
[E] _ [A] _
You [D] went back to the wild side [G] of _ [Am] life.

_ _ The glamour of the gay night life [C] has lured [E] you.
_ [A] _
_ [D#] To the [D] places _ where the wine and liquor [G] flow.
_ _ You _ [F#] _ [G] just sat and waited to be _ _ [C] anybody's baby.
[E] _ _ [A] _
_ You [D] forget the truest love you'll ever [G] _ know. _ _
