The song from the second part of this video

This song isn't on the album or any EP's and no one seems to know the name of it 
so I'm just gonna call it Rubber Ball...


These might not be the correct chord names but they're close enough
F:    x 8 10 10 10 8
F/C:  8 x 10 10 10 8
Am7:  5 7 5 5 5 5
Am/E: x 7 5 5 5 5 
Bb:   6 8 8 7 6 6 
Bb/F: x 8 8 7 6 6 
C:    8 10 10 9 8 8 
C/G:  x 10 10 9 8 8 

Most of the chords are in the same position, with the only difference being the 
bass note being strummed. 

Strumming pattern is pretty easy. Just bass note and then the rest of the chord. 
You can definitely figure it out by just listening.

F F F F/C Am7 Am/E Am7 Am/E x2

F       F          F            F/C
Rolling around like a big rubber ball
Am7       Am/E         Am7        Am/E
Writing this song about some things that I saw
F       F          F            F/C
Trying to stand like a big strong tough man
Am7       Am/E         Am7        Am/E
Finding out fast that I'm sinking in sand

Bb   Bb/F   Bb   Bb/F
All I got is nothing but 
F       F        F       F/C
A little bit of love and gonna 
Bb   Bb/F   Bb   Bb/F
Give it to the people then they'll
C     C/G       C      C/G
See, then they'll see

F       F          F            F/C
Spinning the tops as the tables they turn
Am7       Am/E         Am7        Am/E
Made some mistakes but I still couldn't learn
F       F          F            F/C
Riding the tracks but I was fine
Am7       Am/E         Am7        Am/E
Got no self control now I'm back here in line

Bb   Bb/F   Bb   Bb/F

Bb   Bb/F   Bb   Bb/F
Give it to the people then they'll
C     C/G       C      C/G
See, then they'll see

Repeat the first verse and the chorus again and then end on a F maj chord.
