A quark is a fundamental constituent of matter

G5                        F5               C5
Observed in 1968 through deep electric scatter

   C5                              F5
We found that protons were more complex than we thought

   G5                                     F5          C5
We thought they were solid particles but they are not

C5                                            F5
Protons in fact are made up of three separate pieces

         G5                          F5         C5
It just gets more confusing as our knowledge increases

     C5                                       F5
And that is what a quark is; it?s a piece of a proton

           G5                         F5              C5        
And they also make up other things including the neutron

C5                      F5
Up down strange charm top bottom

        G5                                       F5                  C5
If you don?t know what a quark is it doesn?t matter, you still got em

           C5                                F5
And with leptons and bosons unless something?s amiss

              G5                               F5            C5
They make up everything that we can see and that we know exists

C5                                    C5              F5
Things made up of quarks including protons and neutrons

G5                                             F5                      C5
Are composite particles that physicist call hadrons

C5                                              F5
Many times those hadrons are theoretically described

G5                              F5            C5
But most exist for only very brief amounts of time

C5                                    C5                F5
Quarks have electric charge, colour charge, mass and spin

      G5                                     F5      C5
And having colour charge means they exist solely in side

C5                                           F5
Other kinds of particles that cannot exist alone

          G5                           F5               C5
Which is why quarks have never been studied on their own

C5                      F5
Up down strange charm top bottom

       G5                                        F5                  C5
If you don?t know what a quark is it doesn?t matter, you still got em

          C5                                 F5
And with leptons and bosons unless something?s amiss

              G5                               F5            C5
They make up everything that we can see and that we know exists

       C5                                C5           F5
These tiny bits of matter are part of almost everything

       G5                        F5               C5
There is no unified theory to make it less confusing

          C5                               C5              F5
But the fact that we?ve identified that they exist at all

     G5                         F5          C5
Is so remarkable that I am constantly in awe

C5                      F5
Up down strange charm top bottom

         G5                                      F5                  C5
If you don?t know what a quark is it doesn?t matter, you still got em

            C5                               F5
And with leptons and bosons unless something?s amiss

               G5                            F5              C5
They make up everything that we can see and that we know exists
