INTRO

A|D|A

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        E        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        E        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        E        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        E        Bm D
That's who I am, that's who I am, that's who I am

Is it a T-rex? (I keep digging, digging, digging, digging)
(digging, digging, digging, digging)
  E  Bm
Maybe a Triceratops? (Digging, digging, digging, digging)
(digging, digging, digging, digging)

Or a Carnotaur? (Digging, digging, digging, digging),(digging, digging, digging, digging)
(digging, digging, digging, digging, diggin')

Pachycephalosaurus?

That's who I am, that's who I am, that's who I am
