Subject: Wild Side of Life by Hank Thompson
Status:

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

chorus
E A
I didn't know god made honky tonk angels,
B E
I might have known you'd never make a wife.
A
You gave up the only one that ever loved you,
B E
and went back to the wild side of life.

A
The glamour of the gay night life had lured you,
B E
to the places where the wine and liquor flow.
A
Where you're waiting to be anybody's baby,
B E
and give up the only love you'll ever know

repeat chorus... last 2 lines twice... (I like too go up on last time
like this)
E A
You gave up the only one that ever loved you,
A7 B E
and went back to the wild side of life.

I play my A7 as a normal A and hold the high E string at the 3rd fret.
