Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

[Verse 1]
D              A
To make one me you just add
G               G            D
Half of mom and half of dad
        A             G      G
That is what I once believed

D               A
But now I know that I was wrong
G                G         D
You gave so much to me mom
        A                       G  G
Besides one half a set of genes
N.C.
You gave me


[Verse 2]
D            A
Nutrients, transcription factors
G                   G          D
Nearly everything that matters
          A                 G               G
Plus my prenatal environment (transplacental inheritance)
D           A
Mrna, mitochondria,
      G                      G
That back in the day once belonged to ya (they’re cytoplasmic)
D                 A              G            G
I just want to thank you for supplying them


[Chorus]
      A                  Bm        G          D 
Just like two strands of DNA are spirally entwined
      A               Bm         G           D 
Your nature and your nurture inspiringly combined
G             A             D        A      Bm
Scientists remind me and I find that it is true
          G                 A            G                D 
Slightly more than half of everything I am is thanks to you
          G                 A            G                D 
Slightly more than half of everything I am is thanks to you


[Verse 3]
D             A 
Mitochondria power the cell
      G         G
and they have DNA as well
D                      A              G      G
Transcription factors modulate transcription
     D                    A 
And since they're in the cytoplasm
    G             G
The eggs the only one who has em
D               A                    G      G
sperm I guess they don’t have the ambition


[Chorus]
    A          Bm          G                D
My sex determination gene means that I’m a guy (I’m a guy)

    A                Bm        G              D
You gave me one X chromosome, Dad gave me one Y
G              A                    D        A Bm
X has over a thousand genes, Y has less than 9 2
                    G                A            G                D
Thats why slightly more than half of everything I am is thanks to you
          G                 A            G                D 
Slightly more than half of everything I am is thanks to you


[Bridge]
   G                       A                D               G
I roomed in your womb for nine months and I never paid the rent
       G                      A             D             G
Your glucocorticoids helped shaped my hypothalmic development
  G                    A               D      A   Bm
I took your blood and sucked it dry of every nutrient (its gross but true)
G                                                        A 
Sometimes I wonder where the time went (where did it go)
G                                      A
Sometimes I wonder where it all wents

[Verse 4]
    A             Bm              G                 D 
I know I’ll never understand all you have done for me (Im not that smart)
     A                  Bm               G           D 
But since you paid for college I’ll get my B. S. degree (bachelor of science)
G                       A         D    A      Bm
And I have learned its not BS but absolutely true
          G                A            G                D 
Slightly more than half of everything I am is thanks to you.
G                 A            G                D
More than half of everything I am is thanks to you
     D
You gave me nutrients,


[Verse 5]
N.C.
(Knock on the corpus of your guitar)
N.C.
Transcription factors
N.C.
Nearly everything that matters
N.C.
Mrna, mitochondria,
N.C.
That back in the day once belonged to ya
N.C.
Nutrients, transcription factors
N.C.
Everything that really matters
N.C.
Mrna, mitochondria,
N.C.
That back in the day once belonged to ya    singing
N.C.
Nutrients, transcription factors
N.C.
Nearly everything that matters
N.C.
Mrna, mitochondria,
N.C.
That back in the day once belonged to ya
N.C.
"It's not an even 50/50 split you get a disproportionate share of your DNA coming from your mom. 
Re-ally important." - Robert Sapolsky


[Chorus]
      A                   Bm       G          D
Just like two strands of DNA are spirally entwined (doubble helix)
      A               Bm         G           D
Your nature and your nurture inspiringly combined
  G             A             D        A      Bm
Scientists remind me and I find that it is true
         G                 A            G                D 
Slightly more than half of everything I am is thanks to you
          G                 A               D
Slightly more than half of me is thanks to you


[Outro]
          G                A            G      D 
Slightly more than half of me is thanks to you
