This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.
Song
"Van Halen" Bass Tab
Artist: Nerf Herder
Album: Nerf Herder
This is a fairly simple song to play. All I have to go from is a 30
second video clip and the 2 times I heard the full song on the radio, so
there may be more to it than what I have here. I'm sure there are corrections
to be made, but this sounds pretty good. The main riff is:
g-----------------------------------------------
d-----------------------------------------------
a------2-3-5--5-5-0-1-2--2-2-2-3----3-2-0------ e-3--3------------------------------------3----
This isn't to scale or anything, so listen to the song to get the strumming
pattern. The solo mid-song is a great place to figure it out. There is
another part that has a slight variation at the end:
g---------------------------------------------
d---------------------------------------------
a------2-3-5--5-5-0-1-2--2-2-2-3-2-3-2-0------ e-3--3-----------------------------------3----
That's it (I think).
Comments, questions, corrections, flames, etc. are welcome.

Spotted a wrong chord, or know a capo position that sounds closer to the record?
