Song: Blue Band: A Perfect Circle Album: Thirteenth Step Guitarists: Billy Howerdel and James Iha Tabbed by: Zach Kraemer I was disturbed at the lack of a tab for "Blue", and I felt the need to step in. This tab IS incomplete, but I'll be fixing that soon and it's better than nothing.The only "Blue" tab was by some major idiot who tabbed "A Stranger" and called it Blue!
