F       Am        Dm
Welcome to South Dakota
A#               F
Here, in early July
F       Am          Dm
Tucked away in the Black Hills
         A#                  C
On an especially starry night
F           Am          Dm
A concrete green Brontosaurus
       A#                  C
Has a subtle glint in her eye

                 Am  A#
'Cause under the moonlight
                      C
When the moment is right
           Am A#
Under the moonlight
              C
Things come alive

Chorus:
A#           F                Am
In Dinosaur Park, long after dark
              Dm  C    A#
I wonder what happens there?
                F
When no one's around
                  A#              C
Does some kind of magic fill the air?
A#            F                 Am
I won't ever prove statues can move
                 Dm     C
But I'd like to think they do
Gm           A#                   C
So I make believe with all of my heart
(Oh, oh)
Gm              A#                 C
There's magic afoot unseen in the dark
             A#  F C
In Dinosaur Park

Boy, I love Rapid City
And that hilltop of beasts
When I gaze up at that T-rex
It's like he's staring back at me
Yeah, those old dinosaur sculptures
Fill my heart with awe and intrigue

'Cause under the moonlight
When the moment is right
Under the moonlight
Things come alive

Chorus:
In Dinosaur Park, long after dark
I wonder what happens there
When no one's around
Does some kind of magic fill the air?
I won't ever prove statues can move
But I'd like to think they do
So I make-believe with all of my heart
(Oh, oh)
There's magic afoot unseen in the dark
In Dinosaur Park

                Gm                     A#
'Cause when the moon's sitting pretty above
Rapid City
        Dm                          C
There's much more than meets the eye
          Gm                  A#
And I can only imagine what strange things
could happen
       Dm                     C
When nobody's on Skyline Drive
            Gm                     A#
And when I leave Minnesota to see South Dakota
        Dm                       C
I got a lot of things on my mind
             Gm                  A#
'Cause I can only imagine what strange things
could happen
      Dm                   C
Up on top of that hill at night

Gm                 Dm
What do dinosaurs talk about
    F              C
When they're alone?
       Gm                 Dm
Heh, before the sun comes up
              A#        C
And they turn back to stone
     Gm                   Am
Do they look down on the city lights
      A#                       C
Even though they don't bat an eye?
     A#                      Am
And then at night, when the moon is bright
         G
Do they come alive?
          A#          Dm       C
I have a sneaking suspicion inside

Chorus:
'Cause in Dinosaur Park, long after dark
I wonder what happens there
When no one's around
Does some kind of magic fill the air?
I won't ever prove statues can move
But I'd like to think they do
I don't know how, and I don't know why
(Oh, oh)
But I get the feeling deep down inside
(Oh, oh)
There's magic afoot in the middle of the night

'Cause when the moon's sitting pretty above
Rapid City
There's much more than meets the eye
And I can only imagine what strange things
could happen
When nobody's on Skyline Drive
And when I leave Minnesota to see South Dakota
I got a lot of things on my mind
'Cause I can only imagine what strange things
could happen
Up on top of that hill at night

In Dinosaur Park
