Tonight Is the Night I Fell Asleep at the Wheel Lyrics

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".

Driving home to be with you
The highway's dividing, the city's in view
As usual, I'm almost on time
You're the last thing that's on my mind
I wish I could tell you the way that I feel
But tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel
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
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
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
ridge
I guess it's over now
Cause I've never seen so much
Never seen so much, never seen so much
Never seen so much
I guess it's over now
Cause I've never seen so much
Never seen so much, never seen so much
D (Strum rapidly, then let ring)
Bloooooooood!
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 you...

You're the last thing on my mind

You're the last thing on my mind
