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
