Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom bass

Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom

Can't find any tabs for this great song anywhere, so I made one myself.

This is my first tab, any (constructive) criticism is encouraged.

This song has two distinct musical sections:

In the first section, the eponymous 'nom's go like this:

G|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
D|5-5-5-0-5-7-5---|----------------|----------------|----------------|
A|----------------|5-5-5-0-5-7-5-0-|3-3-3---3-5-3---|5-5-5-0-5-7-5---|
E|----------------|----------------|------3---------|----------------|

In the second (middle) section, they assume the simpler:

G|0-0-12-12-0-0-12-12-|--------------------|0-0-12-12-0-0-12-12-|--------------------|
D|--------------------|0-0-12-12-0-0-12-12-|--------------------|0-0-12-12-0-0-12-12-|
A|--------------------|--------------------|--------------------|--------------------|
E|--------------------|--------------------|--------------------|--------------------|

Humblest apologies if that bit was incorrect, I wasn't too sure on that.

Throughout the first section (coming in four bars before the bass), there
appears to be an arpeggio on a piano or similar keyed instrument, it goes
like this (be aware it's almost certainly several octaves higher than a
bass, I've just put it in tablature form for ease of reading):

G|--4-7-4---4-7-4-|----------------|----------------|----------------|
D|5-------5-------|--4-7-4---4-7-4-|--2-5-2---2-5-2-|--4-7-4---4-7-4-|
A|----------------|5-------5-------|3-------3-------|5-------5-------|
E|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|

===BASS===

The actual bassline to the song is rather simple, apart from the odd twiddly
bit in the middle section.

When the bass comes in (at around 14 seconds), it does a pleasing:

G|----------------|
D|------------17\5|
A|----------------|
E|----------------|

And begins with:

G|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
D|5-5-5-5-5-5-4-2-|----------------|----------------|----------------|
A|----------------|5-5-5-5-5-5-7-5-|3-3-3-3-3-3-5-3-|5-5-5-5-5-5-7-5-|
E|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|

This repeats but once, at which point we encounter the middle section.

The first four bars of the middle section do this:

G|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
D|5---------------|----------------|5---------------|----------------|
A|----------------|5---------------|----------------|5---------------|
E|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|

Let each of these notes ring for the whole bar.

The next four become a little more ambitious:

G|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
D|5-5-5-5-7-5-4-2-|--------2-4-2---|5-5-5-5-7-5-4-2-|--------2-4-2---|
A|----------------|5-5-5-5-------5-|----------------|5-5-5-5-------5-|
E|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|

After this, we begin our final section with bass in, it goes like this:

G|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
D|5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|----------------|----------------|----------------|
A|----------------|5-5-5-5-5-5-7-5-|3-3-3-3-3-3-5-3-|5-5-5-5-5-0-5-7-|
E|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|

This repeats twice, and the bass part finishes with a nice staccato:

G|----------------|
D|5---------------|
A|----------------|
E|----------------|

That's all there is to the bass part, I hope you enjoy playing this song as much as I do!

Note to guitarists: I believe the guitar part isn't much different, power
chords maybe. If someone wishes to tab this for guitar, using mine as
reference, feel free. All I ask is that you credit me if you did use mine.
