Song: "My Name"
Artist: Starflyer 59
Album: Everybody Makes Mistakes

This is the first of what I hope will be a complete set of tabs
from Starflyer's incredible new CD, Everybody Makes Mistakes. If
you haven't bought the CD, you need to.  This is my personal favorite
song on the CD. Unfortunately I don't know the lyrics and I'd feel
stupid guessing them (except the obvious parts), so you'll have to
play along with the CD to get the rhythm. For now I haven't tabbed
the lead parts. If I do (I plan to eventually) I'll post them. Without
further ado...

As with all Starflyer songs, guitar is tuned down a half-step. Song is
in the key of C relative to the tuning, so it's technically B.

As with all my tabs, I guarantee 99% accuracy, but if you have any
suggestions and/or corrections, or you just want to talk to another
Starflyer fan, or you want to ask about another Starflyer song, just
let me know. My address is stinger31@excite.com and I'd love to hear
from you. Look for more Starflyer tabs coming soon. If you have any
specific requests let me know. Until next time...peace out and God bless.
