[Verso 1]
 
C                            F 
Going home ain't the same as staying home 
              C 
New York City all alone 
                     G      G/B 
She's sittin' in the square 
C 
Gloria she ran away 
    F 
And now she's got no place to stay 
C                 G              C 
Wondering how her life just disappeared 
C 
On the street it's hard to keep warm 
F 
Hard to sleep, hard to keep on 
C                              G    G/B 
Hard to face one more homeless year 
      C 
She's living broke on borrowed time 
     F 
Been looking for an exit sign 
    C                   G/B    G           C 
And trying to shake the reason she's still here

Singin' Gloria, hallelu - jah 
        F        C           G       G/B 
See the grace of God shining through ya 
         C                    F        C 
When the pain of sin tries to pull you in

Hear the Father's voice calling you home.

[Verso 2]
 
C 
Growing up at home, her toothbrush 
F 
In a cup, shoes on the floor 
C                                  G 
All the stuff she took for granted then 
C 
Now she's turning sixty-three 
    F 
And Gloria gets on her knees 
    C                    G           C 
And says, "Lord, how'd I ever end up here? 
C 
It's not that I don't believe 
F 
It's just that it's hard for me 
   C                                  G 
To talk to You, 'cause I'm too bad to pray 
    C 
But Preacher says that You love me 
    F 
And even if it's hard to see, Lord 
C                G                   C 
Maybe that's the reason you're still here."
