Capo 1

Verse:
 
G            cadd9     G 
I've been in search of stones 
G 
Making up the pavement 
        cadd9    G 
of less traveled roads 
   G/F#    Em 
mining for treasure deep in my bones 
Em           D    Dsus2 D  Dsus2     
That I never found 


Verse
 
G                cadd9 G 
Went looking for reve..rence 
G 
Tried to find it in a bottle 
       cadd9 G 
& came back  again 
G    G/F# Em 
High on a hashpipe of good intent 
Em                     D   Dsus2 D Dsus2 
But it only brought me down 



[Refrão]

 
Cadd9 D                   G    G/F# Em 
Tried institutions of the mind and  soul 
cadd9   D 
It only taught me what I 
G      G/F# Em 
Should not  know 
cadd9  D 
Oh the answer well 
G         G/F# Em     
who would have guessed 
Em       C            D 
Could be something as simple as 
G    C            D         G   cadd9 G 
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 


[Refrão]

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 D    G       cadd9 D  G 
I     been falling crashing breaking 
cadd9 D       G 
And   all the while you were 
cadd9 D    G 
stood here waiting 
       Em 
For me girl 



[Refrão]

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
