Am F Starin' through a spiderweb where the windshield used to be G E What's left of the dashboard, the smell of gasoline Am F I can just make out one neon light south off through the trees G E My feet took over walkin' 'fore my mind caught up with me F Am When I walked in my tab was already open F E My drink was poured and my cigarette was smokin' Chorus: E Dm Em Somebody said "Hey girl, where you been? Am Doncha know I been waitin' for ya? Dm Em "Got a band up there been dyin' to play a little Am 'Devil Went Down to Georgia' Dm Em Am "Rest that trav'lin' soul, looks like the road F was long Em Am F G Dm Em "Welcome to Southern Babylon" I had to pull myself together and ask to use the phone The waitress smiled a wicked grin, it sent a chill right to my bone I said, "I need to call the tow truck, some way to move along" She said, "Who you wanna call now that you've been called home?" Chorus: She said, "Hey girl, where you been? Don't you know I been waitin' for ya? You got a band up there just dyin' to play a little 'Hotel California' And maybe it's not sinkin' in, but you'll learn to play along Honey, you been gone since you walked into Southern Babylon" "I'm not supposed to be here, bartender, don't you see? I took a gig down in Atlanta and the brakes gave out on me" She said, "We know all about ya, it's a little bit too late" She handed me a guitar and pointed to the flames Chorus: "Hey girl, where you been? Don't ya know I been waitin' for ya?
