Protons And Neutrons chords by 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.
