Intro
[E] [A]
Verse 1
[E]Gloria, you're always on the [A]run now
Running after [E]somebody,
you gotta get him [A]somehow
I think you've got to [E]slow down
before you start to [A]blow it
I think you're headed for a [E]breakdown,
so be careful not to [A]show it
Chorus
You really don't [F#m]remember, [B]
was it something that he [E]said?[A]
Are the voices in your [D]head [E]
calling, [A]Gloria?
[E]Gloria, don't you think you're [A]fallin'?
If everybody [E]wants you,
why isn't anybody [A]callin'?
You don't have to [E]answer[G]
Leave them hangin' on the [D]line, [E]oh-oh-oh,
calling [A]Gloria
[E]Gloria (Gloria),
I think they got your [A]number (Gloria)
I think they got the [E]alias (Gloria)
that you've been living [A]under (Gloria)
But you really don't [F#m]remember, [B]
was it something that they [E]said?[A]
Are the voices in your [D]head [E]
calling, [A]Gloria?

Verse 2
A-ha-ha, A-ha-ha, [E]Gloria,
how's it gonna go [A]down?
Will you meet him on the [E]main line,
or will you catch him on the [A]rebound?
Will you marry for the [E]money,
take a lover in the [A]afternoon?
Feel your innocence [E]slipping away,
don't believe it's comin' [A]back soon
Chorus
And you really don't [F#m]remember, [B]
was it something that he [E]said?[A]
Are the voices in your [D]head [E]

Intro

Verse
[B]Gloria
manchi tu [E]nell'aria
manchi ad una [B]mano
che lavora [E]piano
manchi a questa [B]bocca
che cibo piu non [E]tocca
e sempre questa [B]storia
che lei la chiamo [E]Gloria.
Gloria sui tuoi [C#m]fianchi[F#]
la mattina nasce il [B]sole[E]
entra odio ed esce [A]amore[B]
dal nome [E]Gloria.
[B]Gloria
manchi tu [E]nell'aria
manchi come il [B]sale
mi manchi piu del [E]sole
sciogli questa [B]neve[D]
che soffoca il mio [A]petto[B]
t'aspetto [E]Gloria.
[B]Gloria chiesa di [E]campagna
acqua nel [B]deserto
lascio aperto il [E]cuore
scappa senza far [C#m]rumore[F#]
dal lavore dal tuo [B]letto[E]
dai gradini di un [A]altare[B]
ti aspetto [E]Gloria.
Instrumental
[B] [E]
Verse
[B]Gloria per chi attende il [E]giorno
e invece di [B]dormire
con la memoria [E]torna
a un tuffo nei [B]papaveri
in una terra [E]libera
per chi respira [B]nebbia
per chi respira [E]rabbia
per me che senza [C#m]Gloria[F#]
con te nuda sul [B]divano[E]
faccio stelle di [A]cartone[B]
pensando a [E]Gloria.
[B]Gloria
manchi tu [E]nell'aria
manchi come il [B]sale
mi manchi piu del [E]sole
sciogli questa [B]neve[D]
che soffoca il mio [A]petto[B]
t'aspetto [E]Gloria.
[B]Gloria chiesa di [E]campagna
acqua nel [B]deserto
lascio aperto il [E]cuore
scappa senza far [C#m]rumore[F#]
dal lavore dal tuo [B]letto[E]
dai gradini di un [A]altare[B]
ti aspetto [E]Gloria.
