Dan Griffin - Stars and Satellites
Tabbed by Stephen Tearoe ( aka HowsYouDoing )
So I was sitting on my bed the other day wondering what song to learn next, and my friend
told me to learn this song, and to my bewilderment there were no tabs for it!
So I made my own.
Bear in mind, this will be slightly incorrect from how Dan Griffin actually plays it, there
may be some little discrepancies, but it is close enough to play to and to find out how he
actually plays it if you want to learn his way. This works for me. And besides, it was
better than what was already out there (which was nothing, at this point in time!)
Please Rate this Tab once you are done with it :)
