Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

[cadd9]

I've been in search of stones

Making up the pavement

[cadd9]

of less traveled roads

mining for treasure deep in my bones

That I never found

Verse

[cadd9]

Went looking for reve..rence

Tried to find it in a bottle

[cadd9]

& came back again

High on a hashpipe of good intent

But it only brought me down

Chorus

[cadd9]

Tried institutions of the mind and soul

[cadd9]

It only taught me what I

Should not know

[cadd9]

Oh the answer well

who would have guessed

Could be something as simple as

[cadd9]

this,something as simple as this

Verse

Traveled to each oceans end

Saw all 7 wonders,

trying to make some sense

Memorized the mantra confucius said

But it only let me down

Chorus

Tried absolution of the mind and soul

It only led me where I should not go

Oh and the answer well

how could I miss

Something as simple as this?

Something as simple as this?

Bridge

[cadd9] [cadd9]

I been falling crashing breaking

[cadd9]

And all the while you were

[cadd9]

stood here waiting

For me girl

Chorus

Tried liberation of my own free will

But it left me looking to get higher still

Oh and the answer well

who could have guessed

could be something as simple as this?

God knows how I could have missed

Something as simple as this
