R.E.M. - It Happened Today: chords

D	       A     Bm
This is not a parable
           G      D
This is a terrible
           A         Em
This is a terrible thing

Yes I will rhyme that after
After all I've done today
I have earned my wings

Chorus:
    C	               A
It happened today. Hooray! Hooray!
    C	                   A
It happened. Hip, hip, hooray!

We'll leave the allegory
To another Bible story
Out of deference, defiance and choice

And close in on a promise after
After all I've done today
I have earned my voice

Chorus:
It happened today, hooray hooray
It happened, hip hip hooray
