VERSE 1
A Dbm I love diggin' in the dirt F#m With just a pick and brush Bm Finding fossils is my aim E7 So I'm never in a rush A Dbm 'Cause the treasures that I seek F#m Are rare and ancient things Bm Like Velociraptor's jaw E7 Or Archaeopteryx's wings
CHORUS
D Now all the kids E7 Who wanna see 'em D Are lining up E7 At our museum A E7 Bm D I am a paleontologist A E7 Bm D That's who I am, that's who I am, that's who I am A E7 Bm D I am a paleontologist A E7 Bm D That's who I am, that's who I am, that's who I am
VERSE 2
A Dbm Could it be an herbivore F#m Crushing plants with rounded teeth Bm Or ferocious carnivore E7 Who moves so quickly on its feet A Dbm It's like pieces of a puzzle F#m That I love to try and solve Bm It's so fun to think about E7 How a species has evolved
CHORUS
D Now all the kids E7 Who wanna see 'em D Are lining up E7 At our museum A E7 Bm D I am a paleontologist A E7 Bm D That's who I am, that's who I am, that's who I am A E7 Bm D I am a paleontologist A E7 Bm D That's who I am, that's who I am, that's who I am
