Ending is hard to hear, so I did the best I could.
 
This is from the new album 21st Century Breakdown entitled ¡Viva La Gloria! NOTE THIS IS
La Gloria! not ¿Viva La Gloria?(Little Girl). This is track 4 on the album, not the one
down.

Capo on 4th fret
 
[Intro]
 
C  Em  F  C
 
[Verse 1]
 
C          Em
  Hey Gloria
        F                     G         C
Are you standing close to the edge?
               Em              F
Lookout to the setting sun
                  G          C
The brink of your vision
        Em
Eternal youth is
  F                G         C
A landscape of the lie
                 Em               F
The cracks of my skin can prove
                  G          C
As the years will testify
                     Em           F
Say your prayers and light a fire
                       G     C
We're going to start a war
               Em            F
Your slogans a gun for hire
             G               C
It's what we waited for
         Em
Hey Gloria,
        F                G      C
This is why we're on the edge
                 Em
The fight of our lives been drawn to
     F       C
This undying love.
 
[Chorus]
Work out the rhythm, pretty simple (just the same as Letterbomb)
 
 Gloria Where Are You Gloria?...

Lyrics:
 
Hey, Gloria
Are you standing close to the edge?
Look out of the setting sun
Brink of your vision
Eternal youth is
A landscape of a lie
 
The cracks of my skin can prove
As the years will testify
Say your prayers and light a fire
We're going to start a war
Your slogan's a gun for hire
It's what we waited for
 
Hey, Gloria
This is why we're on the edge
The fight of our live's been drawn
This undying love
 
Gloria, Viva La Gloria
You blast your name
In graffiti on the walls
Falling in broken glass that's
Slashing thought your spirit
I can hear it like a jilted crowd
 
Gloria, Where are you, Gloria?
You found a home
In all your scars and ammunition
You made your bed in salad days
Amongst the ruins
Ashes to ashes of our youth
 
She smashed her knuckles into winter
As autumn's wind fades into black
She is the saint of all the sinners
The one that's fallen through the cracks
So don't put away your burning light
 
Gloria, Where are you Gloria?
Don't lose your faith
To your lost naivete
Weather the storm and don't look
Back on last November
When your banners were burning down
 
Gloria, Viva La Gloria
Send me you amnesty down
To the broken hearted
Bring us the season
That we always will remember
Don't let the bonfires go out
 
So Gloria,
Send out your message of the light
That shadows in the night
Gloria, where's your undying love?
Tell me the story of your life
Your life
