              D                                         G 
Gloria, you're always on the run now. 
                                D                                    G 
Running after somebody, you gotta get him somehow. 
                                  D                                            G 
I think you've got to slow down before you start to blow it. 
                                              D                                                G 
I think you're headed for a breakdown, so be careful not to show it. 
 
                              Em       A                                      D 
You really don't remember, was it something that they said? 
G                                C        D                  G 
  Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria? 
 
  D                                          G 
Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'? 
                      D                                           G 
If everybody wants you, why isn't anybody callin'? 
                              D        F                                           C               D                     G 
You don't have to answer  Leave them hangin' on the line, oh-oh-oh, calling Gloria. 
 
  D                                                      G

                              D                                                        G 
I think they got the alias (Gloria) that you've been living under (Gloria). 
 
                                   Em       A                                      D 
But you really don't remember, was it something that they said? 
G                                C        D                  G 
  Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria? 
   D    G 
Gloria  A-ha-ha, a-ha-ha, 
 
  D                                          G 
Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'? 
                      D                                           G 
If everybody wants you, why isn't anybody callin'? 
                              D        F                                           C               D                     G 
You don't have to answer  Leave them hangin' on the line, oh-oh-oh, calling Gloria. 
 
  D                                                      G 
Gloria (Gloria), I think they got your number (Gloria). 
                              D                                                        G 
I think they got the alias (Gloria) that you've been living under (Gloria). 
 
                                   Em       A                                      D 
But you really don't remember, was it something that they said? 
G                                C        D                  G
