are you talking about the high pitched one, kinda twinkly sounding going up and down?
if so im guesing its an arppegiated pulse wave with either the amp envelope decay/sustain and release set really low to get kind of a plucky. OR you could set the gate on the arppegiator to make it sound kinda plucky. then modulate the filter freq with an lfo on 1/4 or maybe 1/8ths to get the "moving" feeling edit: actually the lfo sounds like it might be on 2/4. i could be way off

i tried making it using subtractor and i think 2 sine waves one on octave 4 and the other on octave 5, and it sounded pretty close. i cant seem to figure out what chords they are playing... then i put some delay and a little reverb and eqd out of some the mid/ lower frequencies

why are you listening to smash mouth?
edit- sounds like a sequenced synth to me, but its clearly a sample they inserted into the track and not an original instrument, you can even hear the clipping if u listen close enough
