Thanks for downloading!
This took me some time to tab and it was hard work...
if you download this tab and play it, please appreciate
the effort & time that was put into tabbing it and
comment on it! (on GProTab or Ultimate-guitar). i
always enjoy feedback, including criticisms.

If you intend to play this song (which i recommend!)
you should read the following:
* perhaps you know that Mark Sandman
(singer/bassist, died on stage in July 1999) used a
2-stringed bass, both strings tuned to the same pitch
(seriously!). Of course on Guitar Pro you can't have a
2-string track, but let's just say Mark's bass is only the
middle lines on the tab (both tuned to D, though i'm not
sure whether that was the actual note). I have tabbed
everything on the upper string (the regular D string),
but you are of course free to play on whichever string
you like (well, i assume few people have two D-strings
on their bass). Or you can play both strings in one
stroke, as Mark did when he played this song live.
He played with a pick and with a bottleneck (a metal
or glass cylinder which you slip on your finger) to slide
up and down the strings. Try it, it sounds great.
The sax (& triangle) player is Dana Colley and the
drummer, Jerome Deupree.
* the guitar (also recorded by Sandman) is VERY low in
the song - it's just meant to spice up the tune a little, of
course with Morphine the guitar is never a lead
instrument. So, it was very hard to tab (especially at
the end, bars 55-62 - where i just had to be creative :)
but i think my tab is about as close as you can get,
even with an equalizer (i tried a lot of different
EQs but some parts were still undistinguishable). So
anyway if you want to play this with a guitar use your
imagination...
* i'm not quite sure about the bridge, if you listen to the
song you can clearly detect more than one sax (i'd say
at least three) but i was not able to distinguish all of
them clearly. the tuba might not be a tuba (a bass
sax?), & the flute is perhaps not a flute, i don't know.
well it's not *very* important anyway.
* the drums have been tabbed, i am proud to say, quite
accurately :) i wouldn't say they're perfect (of course
they're not) but nearly. & the hi-hats too (though it's
difficult sometimes to decide whether it's open or not...
there's no "half-open hi-hat" on GP5).
* Voice & bass are nearly perfect too.
* As for the triangle... I know it's terribly boring and
hardly worth tabbing, but i think this instrument is part
of what I love in the song... I even *tried* (not very
hard :) to tab the few places where the pattern actually
changes (merely mistakes, i believe)...
* finally, although this is irrelevant, i want to mention
that this is the only song i have not grown tired of after
having tabbed it. in the process of tabbing a song, one
has to listen to it dozens of times, perhaps even
hundreds (mostly by 1/2-second snipets)... this has
always alienated from me those songs i was precisely
trying to get closer to. but - not this time...
Have Fun!
