Tabbed by Andrew Skinner [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    Dsus4 D  Dsus4
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/F#      Em
High on a hashpipe of good intent

Em                     D   Dsus4 D Dsus4
But it only brought me down
[Chorus]
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

Em   C            D         G   Cadd9 G
this,something as simple as this
[Verse]
G                Cadd9 G
Traveled to each oceans end

G
Saw all 7 wonders,

       Cadd9 G
trying to make some sense

G    G/F# Em
Memorized the mantra confucius said

Em                     D   Dsus4 D Dsus4
But it only let me down
[Chorus]
Cadd9 D                   G    G/F# Em
Tried absolution of the mind and soul

Cadd9   D              G      G/F# Em
It only led me where I should not go

Cadd9  D
Oh and the answer well

    G     G/F# Em
how could I miss

C            D         Em
Something as simple as this

C            D         G   Cadd9 G
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
[Chorus]
Cadd9 D              G     G/F#  Em
Tried liberation of my own free will

Cadd9   D              G     G/F#    Em
But it let me looking to get higher still

Cadd9  D
Oh and the answer well

    G     G/F#   Em
Who would have guessed

Em        C           D         Em
Could be something as simple as this

Em            G            Am
God knows how I could have missed

C             D          G  Cadd9 G
Something as simple as this
