G            G4(6)      G
I've been in search of stones
G
Making up the pavement
        G4(6)    G
of less traveled roads
G/F#      Em
mining for treasure deep in my bones
Em                       D  D4 D D9 D
But it only brought me down

G                G4(6) G
Went looking for reve..rence
G
Tried to find it in a bottle
  G4(6)     G
Came back  again
G    G/F# Em
High on a hashpipe of good intent
Em                       D  D4 D D9 D
But it only brought me down

C           D              G   G/F# Em
Tried institutions of the mind and  soul
C       D                 G      G/F# Em
It only taught me what I Should not  know
C        D             G   G/F#   Em
Oh, the answer, well, how could i miss
C             D         Em
Something as simple as this?

Something as simple as this.

G            G4(6)      G
Traveled to each's oceans end
G
Saw all 7 wonders,
        G4(6)      G
trying to make some sense
   G/F#      Em
Memorized the mantra confucius said
Em                     D  D4 D D9 D
     only brought me down

C          D             G   G/F# Em
Tried absolution of the mind and soul
C           D                 G      G/F# Em
but It only taught me where I should not go
C           D             G   G/F#    Em
Oh, and the answer, well, how could I miss
C             D         Em
Something as simple as this?
C             D         G   G4(6) G
Something as simple as this

C          D        C          D     D9
I've been falling, crashing, breaking
C         D           C             D     D9
All the while you were stood here waiting
     Em
For me girl

( Em C D  D4 D D9 D )

C          D           G   G/F# Em
Tried liberation of my own free will
C           D                 G   G/F# Em
But it left me looking to get higher still
C           D             G    G/F#    Em
Oh, and the answer, well, how could i miss
C             D         Em
Something as simple as this
G                           G6/E
God knows how I could have missed
