 Subject: Wild Side of Life (Honky Tonk Angel) by Freddie Fender
 THE WILD SIDE OF LIFE
 Freddie Fender
 A					   D
 You wouldn't read my letters if I wrote them
 	E7				A
 You asked me not to call you on the phone
 A						D
 But there's something I've been wanting to tell you
 	E7				A
 So I wrote it in the words of this song
 
 Chorus:
 A					D
 I didn't know God made honky tonk angels
         E7				A
 I might have known you'd never make a wife
 A					D
 You gave up the only one that ever loved you
 	E7			    A
 And went back to the wild side of life
 
 (instrumental verse)
 
 (next verse in Spanish if you know it) 
 A					D
 The glamour of the gay nightlife has lured you 
 	E7				A
 to the places where the wine and liquor flow
 A					D
 Where you wait to be somebody else's baby
 	E7				A
 And forget the truest love you'll ever know
 
 (chorus)
