'Echoes Myron' by Guided by Voices from the album 'Bee Thousand'
The guitars are tuned a little sharp on this one, but not enough to use a capo. Twist your pegs up until that opening G sounds right.
This is how my aged ears heard the song, but I'm not totally confident about the chords at the end...sometimes its hard to hear through that lo-fi production...corrections are welcomed.

(intro: G - Bm/F# - B - C - G - Bm/F# - B - C)
tower to the skies an academy of lies
and what goes up surely must come down
and we felt the mighty blow up with the walls coming down
or something like that
most of us are quite pleased with the same old song
and all of a sudden I'm relatively sane
with everything to lose and nothing to gain
or something like that
man of wisdom and man of compromise
man of weak flesh in an armored disguise
all fall down
G - Bm/F# - B - C (play this progression 4x)
if its right you can tell echoes myron like a siren
with endurance like the liberty bell
and he tells you of the dreamers
but he's cracked up like the road
and he'd like to lift us up but we're a very heavy load
