This song is not too difficult to learn to play (the lyrics are a bit tricky, but it's a
DARN good song!) I hope you enjoy it and if you have any questions, you can email me at
lsohfan@gmail.com and I plan on posting a video lesson soon.

A quark is a fundamental constituent of matter
G F C
Observed in 1968 through deep elastic scatter.
C C F
We found that protons aren't as simple as we thought.
G F C
We thought they were solid particles but they are not.
C 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 C F
But 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 C F
Oh, up, down, strange, charm, top, bottom
G F C
If you don't know what a quark is, it don't matter you still got 'em.
C 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 physicists call hadrons.
C C F
Many types of hadrons are theoretically described,
G F C
But most exist for only very brief amounts of time.
C C F
Quarks have electric charge, color charge, mass and spin,
G F C
And having color charge means they exist solely inside of
C C F
Other kinds of particles and cannot exist alone.
G F C
Which is why quarks have never been studied on their own.
C C F
Up, down, strange, charm, top, bottom
G F C
If you don't know what a quark is, it don't matter you still got 'em.
C 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
Quarks can join together in two different ways,
G F C
Baryons and Mesons, but most instantly decay.
C C F
If a particle has three quarks, then it's a baryon,
G F C
If there's one quark and and anti-quark, then it is a meson.
C C F
These tiny bits of matter are a part of almost everything
G F C
And 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 god damn remarkable that I just sit in awe.
C C F
Oh, up, down, strange, charm, top, bottom
G F C
If you don't know what a quark is, it don't matter you still got 'em.
C 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.
I hope you enjoyed!
DFTBA and best wishes,
