Intro - Riff
Verse 1:
A (p.m.)
We start the story when Mom met Dad
A (p.m.) G
And they danced all night and he took her home
A (p.m.)
It might have been all the wine they had
A (p.m.)
But they rolled the dice and won your genome
Pre-Chorus 1:
G D A Bm Then you grew and you grew and one day you were you G D A Asus4 A And you looked like your father and mother G D A Bm If you're looking for someone convenient to blame G A You can take your pick it's one or the other
Chorus:
A G D DNA, you're in my heart A G D A DNA, in fact you're in every part of my body G A Each cell has a nucleus, each nucleus has chromosomes
Intro Riff
And DNA, baby, that spells DNA
Verse 2:
A (p.m.)
Guanine met Cytosine, fell in love
A (p.m.) G
And then Thymine got busy with Adenine
A (p.m.)
They sent the messenger-RNA
A (p.m.) A
To the ribosome to make more protein
Pre-Chorus 2:
G D A Bm And while it's killing you dead it will mess with your head G D A Asus4 A And it's the light in the dark that will guide you G D A Bm It's the pages and pages of what you are like G A In the giant book that's hidden inside you
Chorus:
A G D DNA, you're in my heart A G D A DNA, in fact you're in every part of my body G A Each cell has a nucleus, each nucleus has chromosomes
Intro Riff
And DNA, baby, that spells DNA
Bridge:
G A7 If it says TGGTCGAAC Dadd4/A A7 Then you might get the cancer G Em A7 If it says GTCACGACAGG Dadd4/A A Then you shouldn't eat shrimp or nuts G Em C9 Bb A7 If it says TATACACATATCCTCGT D Then you'll probably wish that you didn't know
(Guitar Solo!)
Verse 3:
A (p.m.)
The time will come when you're almost gone
A (p.m.) G
And you try to guess but you'll never know
A (p.m.)
You do your best and you soldier on
A (p.m.)
Every day you're here till it's time to go
Pre-Chorus 3:
G D A Bm All the good things and bad that you do or don't have G D A Asus4 A You can find out for sure if you got em G D A Bm But there's a spiraling staircase that you're falling down G A And you're nothing but dead at the bottom
Chorus:
A G D DNA, you're in my heart A G D A DNA, in fact you're in every part of my body G A Each cell has a nucleus, each nucleus has chromosomes
Intro Riff
And DNA, baby, that spells DNA
