Great Big Sea is a Canadian folk-rock band from Newfoundland and Labrador, best known for performing energetic rock interpretations of traditional Newfoundland folk songs. The band also performs original material.
On March 11, 2010, Great Big Sea celebrated their seventeenth birthday as a band. And like almost every one of their many anniversaries spent together, they celebrated it by playing a concert, this one in Omaha, Nebraska. For the players it was an important landmark
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Artist: Great Big Sea Song: Walk On The Moon Tabbed by: Chris Broad ([email protected])
Hey all! Here's one of the newest GBS tunes. It's from the upcoming album, but I just couldn't wait to put this one out there. I had a little help, though. I must give credit to Jonny Fray of Boston, MA for his help. Without his ssistance, this tab would not have been ready yet. Thanks also goes to Blair for pointing me toward this video.
If you need a little help with the strumming (some arpeggiation) just look it up on YouTube. Johnny does a great job with this one.
Have fun!

Verse: Did you think their hands were shaking As their rocket ship touched down? I’m sure they shivered, When they finally touched the ground. And that giant leap so fragile And it hardly made a sound.
