Capo first fret
Verse
[G]I've been in [Cadd9]search of [G]stones
[G]Making up the pavement
of less [Cadd9]traveled [G]roads
min[G/F#]ing for [Em]treasure deep in my bones
[Em]That I never [D]found[Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2]
Verse
[G]Went looking for [Cadd9]reve..[G]rence
[G]Tried to find it in a bottle
& came [Cadd9]back [G]again
[G]High [G/F#]on a [Em]hashpipe of good intent
[Em]But it only brought me [D]down[Dsus2] [D] [Dsus2]
Chorus
[Cadd9]Tried [D]institutions of the [G]mind [G/F#]and [Em]soul
[Cadd9]It only [D]taught me what I
[G]Should [G/F#]not [Em]know

[G]who would [G/F#]have [Em]guessed
[Em]Could be [C]something as [D]simple as
[G]this,[C]something as [D]simple as [G]this[Cadd9] [G]
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]I [D]been [G]falling [Cadd9]crashi[D]ng [G]breaking
[Cadd9]And [D]all the [G]while you were
[Cadd9]stood [D]here [G]waiting
For me [Em]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
