Simple as This Lyrics

I've been in search of stones
Making up the pavement
Of less travelled roads
Mining for treasure deep in my bones
That I never found
Went looking for reverence
Tried to find it in a bottle
& came back again
High on a hashpipe of good intent
But it only brought me down
Tried institutions of the mind and soul
It only taught me what I
Should not know
Oh and the answer well
Who would have guessed
Could be something as simple as this
Something as simple as this
Travelled to each ocean's end
Saw all 7 wonders,
Trying to make some sense
Memorised the mantra Confucius said
But it only let me down
Tried absolutions of the mind and soul
It only led me where I
Could not go
Oh and the answer well
How could I miss
Something as simple as this
Something as simple as this
ad9
I been falling crashing breaking
And all the while you were
Stood here waiting
For me girl
G Cadd9 G (x2) | G/F# Em D Dsus2 D
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
ad9
Something as simple as this
