Capo 3
C C F
A quark is a fundamental constituent of matter
G F C
Observed in 1968 through deep electric scatter
C F
We found that protons were more complex than we thought
G F C
We thought they were solid particles but they are not
C F
Protons in fact are made up of three separate pieces
G F C
It just gets more confusing as our knowledge increases
C F
And that is what a quark is; it�s a piece of a proton
G F C
And they also make up other things including the neutron
C F
Up down strange charm top bottom
G F C
If you don�t know what a quark is it doesn�t matter, you still got em
C F
And with leptons and bosons unless something�s amiss
G F C
They make up everything that we can see and that we know exists
C C F
Things made up of quarks including protons and neutrons
G F C
Are composite particles that physicist call hadrons
C F
Many times those hadrons are theoretically described
G F C
But most exist for only very brief amounts of time
C C F
Quarks have electric charge, colour charge, mass and spin
G F C
And having colour charge means they exist solely in side
C F
Other kinds of particles that cannot exist alone
G F C
Which is why quarks have never been studied on their own
C F
Up down strange charm top bottom
G F C
If you don�t know what a quark is it doesn�t matter, you still got em
C F
And with leptons and bosons unless something�s amiss
G F C
They make up everything that we can see and that we know exists
C C F
These tiny bits of matter are part of almost everything
G F C
There is no unified theory to make it less confusing
C C F
But the fact that we�ve identified that they exist at all
G F C
Is so remarkable that I am constantly in awe
C F
Up down strange charm top bottom
G F C
If you don�t know what a quark is it doesn�t matter, you still got em
C F
And with leptons and bosons unless something�s amiss
G F C
They make up everything that we can see and that we know exists
