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
