This work considers a gauged chiral $U(1)_{B-L}$. The vacuum expectation values of two complex scalars break $U(1)_{B-L}$. One linear combination of their two phase degrees of freedom is eaten by the $U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge boson, while the other becomes the QCD axion. Since the PQ symmetry is accidental, there is no ambiguity in the PQ charge assignment. High axion quality implies a large anomalous coupling between the axion and the $U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge boson (or gauged Majoron).
