OLGA, tabcrawler, guitartabs all good.
Some of the other sites leech off OLGA IIRC

www.powertabs.net for powertab files

You need software which can be gotten from
here:www.power-tab.net/downloads.php

You have to get the editor as there is no standalone viewer.

A lot of it is for 6 strings, but often bass is included, you can see in the reviews of each powertab.

Basically the program lets you play the tab out loud, like guitarpro, but better imho.

There are lots of tabs on there, and they all get rated by the users, so they are generally very accurate or straight from a tab book(not always accurate surprisingly)

Moondance (Van Morrison)


Tabbed by vincesmyth

The song is different in every version,
but rotates round the following riff.

VERSE

D |-(5)7-7-9---7-7-9---7-7-9-7-9-10-9-7-9-----|
A |----------7-------7--------------------7---|
E |-------------------------------------------|
"well, it's a marvellous night for a moondance....."

and some variations....
G |--------10-/--------10-/---10-7---/---------/----------|
D |-7-9-10----/-7---10----/-7------9-/-7-5-----/----------|
A |-----------/---7-------/----------/-----9-7-/---3-5-7--|
E |-----------/-----------/----------/---------/-5--------|

E |----------------------------------------| leads into BRIDGE


STOP PRESS:::: a version was transcribed in BASSIST April 2000,
but using different fingering and something very odd in the BRIDGE

Get yourself a copy of www.guitar-pro.com and download all the tabs you need from www.mysongbook.com

You can then slow them down and build up to full speed
