Protons and Neutrons Hank Green
[Am] [G]
Protons and neutrons,
{Am] [G]
The electron cloud scattered around,
[Am] [G]
Atoms packed and lattices stacked
[F] [G] [Am]
Among billions and trillions of their kind,
[F] [G] [Am]
And around trillions more they wind,
[G] [Am]
And we see that they are formed into this thing,
[G] [Am]
That I and those before me call a guitar string.
[F] [G] [Am] [C]
We think we see this world but we see a fraction of a fraction,
[F] [G] [Am] [C]
And even what we can see is just photonic reactions,
[F] [G] [Am] [C]
And we think that it's gorgeous and that no thing could compare,
[G] [Am]
But how could we ever know when there's so much more out there.
[Am] [G]
Protons and neutrons,
{Am] [G]
The electron cloud scattered around,
[Am] [G]
Carbon and oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen,
[F] [G] [Am]
Forming two of the simplest proteins,
[F] [G] [Am]
And stacked together into beta-pleated sheets,
[G] [Am]
And out from my finger grows this thing,
[G] [Am]
That I smack up and down this guitar string.
[F] [G] [Am] [C]
We think we see this world but we see a fraction of a fraction,
[F] [G] [Am] [C]
And even what we can see is just photonic reactions,
[F] [G] [Am] [C]
And we think that it's gorgeous and that no thing could compare,
[G] [Am]
But how could we ever know when there's so much more out there.
