Ashley McBryde - Southern Babylon: chords

 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?
You got a band up there just dyin' to play
a little 'Devil Went Down to Georgia'
Rest that travelin' soul, looks like
the road was long
Welcome to Southern Babylon"

Southern Babylon
Welcome to Southern Babylon
Welcome home
