Morbid Reality by Therion Artist: Therion Song: Morbid Reality Album: Of Darkness Tab by: Ky MacPherson (pokey@uiuc.edu) To play this song you need to tune down 4 half-steps. Also it sounds to me like the guitar is tuned slightly flat, so maybe use A=430 Hz as a reference. There are a lot of tempo changes ... you will have to listen to the album to get them right. I am only showing the bottom 4 strings, since that's all you need to play this song. (But note that this IS a GUITAR tab, NOT bass) I put beat markers on top of the staff to (hopefully) make it a little easier to show the timing. Also watch for the accents at the top of the staff, in place of the beat markers. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : D#|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| A#|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| F |------------5\3-|------------4\3-|------------4\3-|----5\4-----4\3-| C |0000000000003\1-|0000000000002\1-|0000000000002\1-|00003\2-00002\1-| pm- - - - -| pm- - - - -| pm- - - - -| pm-| pm-| : . : . : . : . faster |------------------------| 4x |------------------------| |------------------6-----| |3333333333333333334-2-1-| pm- - - - - - - -| : . : . : . : . |------------------------| 4x |------------------------| |------------------8-----| |5555555555555555556-4-3-| pm- - - - - - - -| : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . slower |---------------------------------|---------------------------------| 3x |---------------------------------|---------------------------------| |2-----------------------8-8-8----|2-----------------------8-5-4b5r4| |0-000-000-000-000-000---6-6-6h7p6|0-000-000-000-000-000---6-3-2b3r2| pm - - - - - - - -| pm - - - - - - - -| : . > . > . > . faster |-------------------------------| 2x |-------------------------------| |2------------------------------| |0-000-0-0-000-0-0-000-0-0------| pm - - - - - - - - - -| : : : : : : : : slower |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| 4x |--------9---------------9--10---|--------9-----------------------| |--------7---------------7---8---|--------7---------------8---4---| |0-0-0-0---------0-0-0-0---------|0-0-0-0---------0-0-0-0-6---2---| pm - -| pm - -| pm - -| pm - -| : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . |--------------------------------|------------------------| |--------9---------------9---7---|------------------------| |--------7---------------7---5---|8-----8-----------------| |0-0-0-0---------0-0-0-0---------|6-----6-----666666666666| pm - -| pm - -| pm- - - - -| : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . |--------------------------------|----------------3h4-------------| |--------9---------------9---7---|--------------------4h5---------| |--------7---------------7---5---|8-------8---------------5h6-----| |0-0-0-0---------0-0-0-0---------|6-------6-------------------6h7-| pm - -| pm - -| : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |--------9---------------9---7---|------------------------11p8----| |--------7---------------7---5---|8-------8-----------7h10----10p7| |0-0-0-0---------0-0-0-0---------|6-------6-------6h9-------------| pm - -| pm - -| : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . |--------------------------------|------------------------| |--------9---------------9---7---|------------------------| |--------7---------------7---5---|8-----8-----------------| |0-0-0-0---------0-0-0-0---------|6-----6-----666666666666| pm - -| pm - -| pm- - - - -| : : : : : : : : |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |------------------------2---2---|--------------------------------| |------------------------0---0h1-|----------------(9)\x-----------| |0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---------|0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-(7)\x-----------| pm - - - - - - - - - -| pm - - - - - -| slow slide : : : : : : : : |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |------------------------0h1h2---|--------0-----------------------| |0-0-0-0-3-------0-0-0-0---------|0-0-0-0---------0-0-0-0-3-------| pm - -| pm - -| pm - -| pm - -| : : : : : : : : |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| 3x |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |------------------------0h1h2---|--------0-----------------------| |0-0-0-0-4-------0-0-0-0---------|0-0-0-0---------0-0-0-0-3-------| pm - -| pm - -| pm - -| pm - -| : ^ |----------------| |----------------| |----------------| |0-0-0-0-1-------| pm - -| Enjoy!
