(I didn't know) God made honky tonk angels
(Hank Thompson / Arr.  Ko-Do)



You wouldn't read my letters if I wrote you
You asked me not to call you on the phone
For there's something I'm wanting to tell you
So I wrote it in the words of this song

Chorus
I didn't know God made honky tonk angels
I might have known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
And went back to the wilder side of life

Yes it hurt me to know that you don't love me
Though I know our love's forever gone
And it's killed my soul and pride, dear, inside me
When I saw you in that strangers arms so long

Chorus
