(ver. 1)
Waylon Jennings
Wild Side of Life/It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels (duet with Jessi Colter)
written by Carter/Warren/Miller
2/18/06


INTRO: A  B7  E


(Waylon)
    E                            A
You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you
    B7                              E
You asked me not to call you on the phone
                                     A
But there's something I'm wanting to tell you
     B7                            E
So I wrote it in the words of this song


CHORUS:
         E                         A
I didn't know God made honky tonk angels
  B7                                  E     
I might have known you'd never make a wife
                                   A
You gave up the only one who ever loved you
         B7                       E
And went back to the wild side of life


INTRO


(PAUSE)


(Jessi)
     D                             G
As I sit here tonight, the jukebox playin'
     A7                          D
Your song about the wild side of life
                                 G
As I listen to the words you are sayin'
          A7                                D
It brings memories of when I was a trusting wife


CHORUS:
          D                       G
It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels
       A7                       D
As you say in the words of your song
                                         G
Too many times married men think they're single
         A7                            D
And it's caused many a good girl to go wrong


CHORUS (Jessi and Waylon):
          D                       G
It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels
  A7                                  D
I might have known you'd never make a wife
                                         G
Too many times married men think they're single
       A7                       D
And go back to the wild side of life
        A7                       D     A7  D
They go back to the wild side of life
