"Driving Me Mad" - Neil Finn / One Nil (2001)
Tabbed by Tom Nichols tom@tomnichols.com 1st March 2011, comments and suggestions welcome
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtfmQvndTiI&feature=related is a useful acoustic version 
to get you the feel for it.  There are tabs out there with base position chords, but 
actually the chord structure is even simpler to play this way I think.

The song is best played in standard tuning, based for the verse starting on the 7th 
fret, with open strings ringing on in the background

A namesake out of reach
Strange days upon us now
we leave the dust of conversation

Hanging in the light above the bed

Year after year
Demons always come
Fail to materialise Way beyond my understanding
Find my only comfort in your hands
Hold me now
Cos tonight its driving me mad
This dream can fill you up
But tonight it's driving me mad

Verse
Hey diamond girl
Restless in my head
Say what lies between us
A host of everyday distractions
But most of all its music taking me
It's driving me mad
Still I can't refuse
Even when it's driving me mad
I guess I'll be all right
When tomorrow brings some relief
This dream can fill you up
So put it out and find what's underneath

Repeat Bride but end on Em7 at base position
