Gloria (Van Morrison/Them) cover

"Gloria" is a song written by Northern Irish singer-songwriter Van Morrison and originally recorded by Morrison's band Them in 1964 and released as the B-side of "Baby, Please Don't Go". The song became a garage rock staple and a part of many rock bands' repertoires. It is particularly memorable for its "Gloria!" chorus. It is easy to play, as a simple three-chord song, and thus is popular with those learning to play guitar. U2 snippeted this song at the ending of "Exit" during practically all its live performances, including the one on their album–movie Rattle and Hum released in 1988. The song has been covered by many artists including: Status Quo, AC/DC, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Rick Springfield, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi, Simple Minds and many more. karaoke cover live lyrics guitar lesson tutorial
