Subject: CRDs Connells "Slackjawed"


Here's the Connell's "Slackjawed" off the Ring album.  I've put the
chords in the position I play them, but fool around with them.  In
some places, walk ups or downs have been left out - they're really
easy to do though, once you play through a couple of times.  Also,
lyrics might be suspect to misinterpetations.

Chords

A   x0222x   A*  xx(11)9(10)x
E   x7999x   E*  xx999x

Something tells me maybe
The strangest night I met you
Someone let you on
Someone let you on

Saying next to nothing
The words were my inventions
Someone let you on
Someone let you on

It's not so bad at all
But then you're back and I'm guessin'
It's not so bad at all

*solo*

*same as others except not constant strumming - hold chords*
Someone tell me something
Well I'm prepared to listen
Nothin's going on
Nothin's going on

*same as other prechorus*
But then you're back and I'm guessin'
It's not so bad at all
But then you're back and I'm guessin'
It's not so bad at all

*same as 2nd chorus*
You got me standing  slackjawed
Since you've been here
And you got me waiting for you
And I'm standing  slackjawed
