...THE HAPPENING... by The Supremes
-------------------................
*Released 1967*
Intro:
,
Verse 1:
Hey life, look at me; I can see the reali-ty.
'Cos when you shook me, took me out of my world;
()
I woke up, suddenly I just woke up, to The Happen-ing.
When you find, that you left the future be-hind.
'Cos when you got a tender love you don't take care of,
Then you better be-ware of; The Happen-ing.
Bridge 1:
One day you-re up, then you turn a-round.
You find your world, is tumbling down.
It happened to me, and it can happen to you.
Verse 2:
I was sure, I felt se-cure, until love took a de-tour.
Yeah, riding high on top of the world;
It happened, suddenly it just happened.
I saw my dreams, fall a-part,
When love walked away from my heart.
And when you lose that precious love you need, to guide you,
Something happens in-side you; The Happen-ing.
Bridge 2:
Now I see life, for what it is.
It's not all dreams, it's not all bliss.
It happened to me, and it can happen to you.
Break:
Once! Ooh, and then it happened.
Ooh, and then it happened.
*KEY CHANGE*
------------
Ooh... and then it happened.
Ooh... and then it happened.
Verse 3:
Is it real? Is it fake?
Is this game of life a mis-take?
'Cos when I lost the love I thought was mine, for certain,
Suddenly I started hurting.
I saw the light, too late.
When that fickle finger of fate;
Yeah, came and broke my pretty balloon, I woke up,
()
Suddenly I just walked up, to The Happen-ing.
So sure, I felt se-cure, until love took a de-tour.
'Cos when you got a tender love you don't take care of,
Then you better be-ware of; The Happen-ing.
