As requested, here is my aproximation to that song.
Performed by Them. As far as I remember Jimmy Page claims to play
guitar on most tracks from that era.

Gloria — Van Morrison (1965)
(1) Continous guitar backup throughout the song:
E E G6 G6 D G6 A G6 G6: —oooo
/ / / / / / / / ——
|__|__|__| |__|__|__| -o—-
o——
If You can’t play that fast enough, playing open strings instead of G6
gives the same sound.
(2) The «solo» 😉 Repeat six times.

(3) Sorry for any mispellings, misinterpretation, I’m not native speaking.
Like to tell you ’bout my baby.
Y’know she comes around.
She’bout five feet four,
a-from her head to the ground.
Y’know she comes around here,
a-just about midnight.
She make me feel so good, Lord.
She make me feel all right.
And her name is G-L-O-R-I-A,
G-L-O-R-I-A, G-L-O-R-I-A.
I’m gonna shout it all night. (Gloria)
I’m gonna shout it ev’ry day. (Gloria)
She comes around here,
just about midnight.
She make me feel so good, Lord.
I wanna say, she make me feel alright.
She comes walkin’ down my street;
a-well, she comes to my house.
She knock up-on my door.
And then she comes to my room.
Then she make me feel all right.
G-L-O-R-I-A, G-L-O-R-I-A.
I’m gonna shout it all night. (Gloria)
I’m gonna shout it ev’ry day. (Gloria)
