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

BRIDGE

    E   Bm
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)
    E   Bm
Or a Carnotaur? (Digging, digging, digging, digging),(digging, digging, digging, digging)
(digging, digging, digging, digging, diggin')
    E   Bm
Pachycephalosaurus?

CHORUS

       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

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