The Goldheart Mountaintop Queen Directory
from the Guided by Voices album Bee Thousand

Tabbed by Michael Diasio and Michael Davidson
Typed by Michael Davidson

On the album, the guitars are tuned down about a whole step, but it
sounds fine in standard, IMHO. The chords are all barre chords.

           A                 D
And we looked   And we passed

             A          A/Ab         G      F
Through the hallways of shatterproof glass

    D                B          F#         G (slide up to an A)
She runs through the night as if nobody cares

    D                B          F#              G (slide to A)
She screams and she cries and ignores all the stares

     D           B            F#           G
She wants me to come but I'm never going there
