This is a song by Jawbox off their 3rd album for your own special sweetheart.
 It's my favorite, and I'm probably playing it wrong.  But if so it's not
that wrong, and it's very passible.  "Reel" by Jawbox figured out, and
transcibed(as always)by Chris Sullivan.

It's basicly the same for the second verse and the ending, just some timing
differences.

G5///////////////        B5/// D5/// G5///////////////        D5///  C5///
reel on a repeating loop,        reel on a repeating loop....

That's basicly it.  In the intro he might hit the open b&e strings  though.
