This is a really great and easy song to play. Definitely one of my favorites. It 
can be played on an acoustic guitar, or a banjitar (how BNL play it). It's off the 
2000 album "Maroon".

[Intro]
G, D, Cadd9, D (x2)

[Verse 1]
G D Cadd9 DDriving home to be with you
G D Cadd9 DThe highway's dividing, the city's in view
Am Esus E As usual, I'm almost on time
Am Esus E You're the last thing that's on my mind
G D Cadd9 DI wish I could tell you the way that I feel
Em7 G D GBut tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel
[Verse 2] No commotion, no screaming brakes Most of it's over before I awake From the ceiling, my coffee cup drips While out my window, the horizon does flips The worst part was hitting the ground - Not the feeling so much as the sound Can't help but wonder if all this is real Cause tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel [Verse 3] Rubberneck traffic and passersby And Slow Motion Walter the fire engine guy Stand around with their mouths open wide I heard some idiot ask if someone's inside
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G With the Jaws of Life they tried and they tried
Nobody here can know how I feel Cause tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel [Bridge]
G D Cadd9 DI guess it's over now
GCause I've never seen so much
D Cadd9Never seen so much, never seen so much
DNever seen so much
G D Cadd9 D I guess it's over now
GCause I've never seen so much
D Cadd9Never seen so much, never seen so much
D (Strum rapidly, then let ring) Bloooooooood! [Verse 4] In all the confusion, there's something serene I'm just a posthumous part of the scene Now I'm floating above looking in As the radio blares and wheels spin I can see my face slump with a grin
DAnd you...
[Coda]
G D Cadd9 DYou're the last thing on my mind
G D Cadd9 DYou're the last thing on my mind
G D Cadd9 DYou're the last thing on my mind
G D Cadd9 DYou're the last thing on my mind
Gsus, G, D6, D, C6, C, D7sus, D7 G (Strumming rapidly) Oooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
