Verse: Bb Eb Well, you wouldnʼt read my letters if I wrote you F Bb You ask me not to call you on the phone Eb Well, thereʼs something Iʼve been waiting for to tell you F Bb So I wrote it in the words of a song Now the glamour of the game that life has lured you To the places where the wine and liquer flow Well, you went to be some body elseʼs baby And forget the truest love you ever know Chorus: Bb Eb I never knew there where honky-tonk angels F Bb Oh, I might have know you never make a wife Eb C You gave up the only one that ever loved you F Bb And went back to that wild side of life Verse: Now the glamour of the gay that life has lured you To the places where the wine and liquer flow Well, you went to be some body elseʼs baby And forget the truest love you ever know Chorus: I never knew there where honky-tonk angels Oh, I might have know you never make a wife You gave up the only one that ever loved you And went back to that wild side of life I never knew there where honky-tonk angels Oh, I might have know you never make a wife You gave up the only one that ever loved you And went back to that wild side of life
