verse:
               Bb                              Eb                
    Well, you wouldn´t read my letters if I wrote you
        F                               Bb
    You ask me not to call you on the phone
                                                      Eb
    Well, there´s something I´ve been waiting for to tell you
           F                         Bb
    So I wrote it in the words of a song

    verse:    
    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 else´s 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

    guitar solo: (there are two guitars playing,
    but I only write down one line.)
