This is about the easiest song on the planet to learn.  It.Is.Four.Chords.
G - D - Asus - Em  -  That's it.  The chord progression continues throughout the whole 
song.  The word-timing can be tricky but the chords fall perfectly on the 1-count of a 
4/4 measure.

GLORY   By Big Daddy Weave
(A4 = Asus)
(D2 = D without fretting the high E string)

Verse 1:
G                       D2
   As the distant sun settled in Western Bethlehem
A4                          Em
   Without a place to stay      and Mary's weary face
G                                    D2
   It'd be easy to wanna give up now   or at least complain
A4                            Em
   If not for what she'd seen     and heard the angel say

Verse 1 cont'd:
   To say she's great with child seems more than simply understating
   Considering the greatness of this child that ages have foretold
   And these seem like such inadequate surrou-ndings
   The king of all born in a cattle stall now bringin'

Chorus:
G         D2       A4           Em
   Glory,    glory,   glory to God in the highest
   Glory,    glory,   glory to God in the highest

Verse 2:
   Our years have passed through centuries the story lived on
   And though I wasn't there myself, I believe it?s true
   Cause that baby came grew up to pay the price for mankind
   My sin is gone and He lives right here in my heart now singin'

Chorus:
   Glory, glory, glory to God in the highest
   Glory, glory, glory to God in the highest

Instrumental: G     D2    A4    Em   (2x)

Chorus:
   Glory, glory, glory to God in the highest
   Glory, glory, glory to God in the highest

Bridge:
   Angels worship at your throne
   Holy is your name alone
   In our hearts you made your home
   Glory, glory, glory to you God

Chorus:
   Glory, glory, glory to God in the highest
   Glory, glory, glory to God in the highest

   Glory, glory, glory to God in the highest
   Glory, glory, glory to God in the highest

   All for your glory, All for your glory, All of the glory to you God
   All for your glory, All for your glory, All of the glory to you God

G         D2       A4          Em**
   Glory,   glory,   glory to God in the highest

** Stop strumming and let it ring out
