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.
