       A              C#m
I love diggin' in the dirt
     F#m             F#m/E
With just a pick and brush
        Bm            Bm/A   
Finding fossils is my aim
       E/G#       E
So I'm never in a rush
          A                C#m
Cause the treasures that I seek
    F#m              Fm/E
Are rare and ancient things
     Bm             Bm/A
Like velociraptor's jaw
        E/G#       E
Or archaeopteryx's wings

            D
Now all the kids
          E
Who wanna see 'em
           D/F#
Are lining up
          E
At the museum

       A     E   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     E   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


Could it be an herbivore
Crushing plants with rounded teeth
Or ferocious carnivore
Moves so quickly on its feet
It's like pieces of a puzzle
That I love to try and solve
It's so fun to think about
How a species has evolved

And all the kids
Who wanna see 'em
Can check 'em out
At our museum

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

E Bm
  Is it a T-Rex? (Digging, digging, digging, digging)
(Digging, digging, digging, digging)

E Bm
   Maybe a Triceratops? (Digging, digging, digging, digging)
(Digging, digging, digging, digging)

E Bm
    Or is it a Carnotaur? (Digging, digging, digging, digging)
(Digging, digging, digging, digging)

E
(Digging, digging, digging, digging, dig)
Pachycephalosaurus?


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