Biography:
The Connells are an American band from Raleigh, North Carolina. They play a guitar-oriented, melodic, power pop style of rock music, with introspective lyrics that reflect the American South.
Guitarist Mike Connell formed the band in 1984, along with his brother David Connell on bass, Doug MacMillan on vocals, and future filmmaker John Schultz on drums. This initial four-person line-up was quickly supplemented by the addition of George Huntley on second guitar, keyboards, and vocals.

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
C#m x4665x A** x0765x
D x5777x B x2444x
Intro A E C#m D
A E
Someone tell me something
C#m D
Well I'm prepared to listen
A E
Nothin's going on
C#m D
Nothin's going on
*same*
Standing next to no one
Well that was my intention
Nothin's going on
Nothin's going on
F#m* D* A*
But then you're back and I'm guessin'
E D
It's not so bad at all
*same*
But then you're back and I'm guessin'
It's not so bad at all
A B
You got me standing slackjawed
D
Since you've been here
A E D
A D A
*same as other verses*
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
*same as last 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
A B
You got me standing slackjawed
D
Since you've been here
A E D
And you got me waiting for you
A D A
And I'm standing slackjawed
*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
