Hank Williams Sr. – The Wild Side of Life

    D                            G
You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you
    A7                              D
You asked me not to call you on the phone
                                     G 
But there's something I'm wanting to tell you
     A7                            D
So I wrote it in the words of this song.

Chorus:
                                  G
I didn't know God made honky-tonk angels
  A7                                  D
I might have known you'd never make a wife
                                   G
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
         A7                       D
And went back to The Wild Side of Life.

    D                                G
The glamour of the gay nightlife has lured you
       A7                               D
To the places where the wine and liquor flows
                               G
Where you wait to be anybody's baby
    A7                                 D
And forget the truest love you'll ever know.

Chorus:

   D                              G
It hurt me to know that you don't love me
  A7                             D
Though I know our love's forever gone
                                     G
And it killed my soul and pride dear inside me
       A7                                 D
When I saw you in that stranger's arms so long.

     D                                     G
I'll just live my life alone with memories of you
    A7                                D
And dream of kisses you traded for my tears
                                     G
And no one will ever know how much I loved you
      A7                                    D
And I pray that you'll be happy through the years.
