Verse 1:
A (p.m.)
We start the story when Mom met Dad 
A(p.m.) (x02220@1)                                     GAnd (320003@1)they danced all night and he took her home 
A (p.m.)
It might have been all the wine they had 
A(p.m.) (x02220@1)                                   
But they rolled the dice and won your genome 

Pre-Chorus 1:
         G (320003@1)          D (xx0232@1)          A (x02220@1)          BmThen (x24432@1)you grew and you grew and one day you were you
        G (320003@1)              D (xx0232@1)        A (x02220@1)name="chord_x02230@1">Asus4 AAnd (x02220@1)you looked like your father and mother 
               G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)        A (x02220@1)   BmIf (x24432@1)you're looking for someone convenient to blame 
        G (320003@1)               AYou (x02220@1)can take your pick it's one or the other 

Chorus:
  A (x02220@1)G (320003@1)         DDNA, (xx0232@1)you're in my heart 
  A (x02220@1)               G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)    ADNA, (x02220@1)in fact you're in every part of my body 
          G (320003@1)             AEach (x02220@1)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.) (x02220@1)                            GAnd (320003@1)then Thymine got busy with Adenine
A (p.m.)
They sent the messenger-RNA 
A(p.m.) (x02220@1)		      ATo (x02220@1)the ribosome to make more protein 

Pre-Chorus 2:
               G (320003@1)         D (xx0232@1)          A (x02220@1)            BmAnd (x24432@1)while it's killing you dead it will mess with your head 
             G (320003@1)          D (xx0232@1)            A (x02220@1)      Asus4 (x02230@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A
And it's the light in the dark that will guide you 
         G (320003@1)  D (xx0232@1)        A (x02220@1)BmIt's (x24432@1)the pages and pages of what you are like 
       G (320003@1)                  AIn (x02220@1)the giant book that's hidden inside you 

Chorus:
  A (x02220@1)G (320003@1)         DDNA, (xx0232@1)you're in my heart 
  A (x02220@1)               G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)    ADNA, (x02220@1)in fact you're in every part of my body 
          G (320003@1)             AEach (x02220@1)cell has a nucleus, each nucleus has chromosomes 
    Intro                      Riff
And DNA, baby, that spells DNA 

Bridge:
           G (320003@1)     A7If (x02020@1)it says TGGTCGAAC 
                       Dadd4/A A7Then (x02020@1)you might get the cancer 
           G (320003@1)  Em (022000@1) A7 (x02020@1)
If it says GTCACGACAGG 
                       Dadd4/A   AThen (x02220@1)you shouldn't eat shrimp or nuts 
           G (320003@1) Em (022000@1)C9 (x3233x@1)Bb (x1333x@1)A7If (x02020@1)it says TATACACATATCCTCGT 
                                          DThen (xx0232@1)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.) (x02220@1)                                 G (320003@1)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 (320003@1)             D (xx0232@1)    A (x02220@1)        BmAll (x24432@1)the good things and bad that you do or don't have

           G (320003@1)                     AAnd (x02220@1)you're nothing but dead at the bottom 


Chorus:
  A (x02220@1)G (320003@1)         DDNA, (xx0232@1)you're in my heart 
  A (x02220@1)               G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)    ADNA, (x02220@1)in fact you're in every part of my body

And DNA, baby, that spells DNA
