Rubber Ball by Bobby Vee. Transcribed by Shaun Connellan (shaunconnellan@hotmail.com) http://www.toptabz.cjb.net This is an old song, I know, but I figured I may as well post it, seeing as I couldn't find a tab for it anywhere else on the net. (Weird, because I think it did really well at the time it was released) Anyway, it's really easy, mainly open chords. Backing vocals in brackets. Verse 1: (N.C.) A F#m I'm like a rubber ball, baby, that's all that I am to you. (bouncy, bouncy. bouncy, bouncy.) A F#m Like a rubber ball, 'coz you think you can be true to two. Bridge: A F#m D E You bounce my heart around. (You don't even put her down) Chorus: A D E A Like a rubber ball, I'll come bouncin' back to you. (A) D E A D A Rubber ball, I'll come bouncin' back to you. Verse 2: F#m A If you stretch my love, 'til it's thin enough to tear, F#m D E I'll just stretch my arms, to reach you anywhere... Chorus. Solo: The solo is just over the chords of A and F#m, just like the verse. Just use the notes C#, A, E, B and F#, (Not neccessarily in that order) over the A chord, and use F#, C# and A (Not neccessarily in that order) over F#m, to make up your own solo. (It'll sound the same) Bridge. Chorus. Verse 3. I'm like a - rubber band when on my shoulder you do tap (bouncy, bouncy bouncy, bouncy). Just a rubber band because my heart-strings, they just snap (bouncy, bouncy bouncy, bouncy) You go and: squeeze me 'til I'm all aflame (She calls you by some other guy's name) Chorus and Fade out to end.
