Chord/Tab song: Tonight Is the Night I Fell Asleep at the Wheel

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]Driving [D]home to [Cadd9]be with [D]you
The [G]highway's div[D]iding, the c[Cadd9]ity's in vi[D]ew
[Am] As usual, I'm [Esus]almost on [E]time
[Am] You're the last thing [Esus]that's on my [E]mind
I [G]wish I could tel[D]l you the [Cadd9]way that I f[D]eel
But ton[Em7]ight is the n[G]ight I fell asl[D]eep at the w[G]heel

[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] With the J[G]aws of Life they t[Cadd9]ried and they t[G]ried
Nobody here can know how I feel
Cause tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel

[Bridge]
[G]I [D]guess it's [Cadd9]over [D]now
Cause I've [G]never seen so much
[D]Never seen so much, [Cadd9]never seen so much
[D]Never seen so much
[G]I [D]guess it's [Cadd9]over [D]now
Cause I've [G]never seen so much
[D]Never seen so much, [Cadd9]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
And [D]you...

[Coda]
You're the [G]last thing [D]on my m[Cadd9]ind[D]
You're the [G]last thing [D]on my m[Cadd9]ind[D]
You're the [G]last thing [D]on my m[Cadd9]ind[D]
You're the [G]last thing [D]on my m[Cadd9]ind[D]

G (Strumming rapidly)
Oooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
