I think that you may find some hints here:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/usage/common-errors#an-extra-staff-appears

This should do what you want:

\version "2.17.9"

\score {
  <<
  \new TabStaff {
    \context TabVoice = "music" {
        d4\4 d\4 a\3 a\3 b\3 b\3 a2\3
    }
  }

  \lyricsto "music" \new Lyrics {
    Twink -- le twink -- le lit -- tle star,
  }
  >>
}
