The Avett Brothers – The Greatest Sum (Ukulele)

C        F     Dm      Dm 
This and who I used to be

      C      C       F      C 
Don't matter much at all to me.

    C       F      Dm         Dm
The pit you dug to plant your feet's

  C       C       F    C 
a far cry from my destiny.

             F
Not even the clouds,

             C
Not even the past,

             C        F      
Not even the hands of God

      Dm      Dm        C 
could hold me back from you.

C        F      Dm     Dm 
Dark and lonely is the ride

    C     C      F     C 
the devil always by my side.

       C        F        Dm     Dm 
Though no match for what lies between

    C          C
the thought of you

     F         C
your trust for me.

             F
Not even the sun,

                C
A bullet from a gun.

    C       F         Dm          Dm
No, nothing that this world could bring or

C    C       F         C
Anything someone could do

      F       C         C C C
Could hold me back from you.

   C      F           Dm     Dm 
No can of gold placed in my hand,

    C       C      
the largest find 

         F        C C C
with the greatest sum.

       C          F     
Though some would say

     Dm       Dm
it'd ease our pain,

C       C       F        C 
We know that it can't be done.

             F
Not even the sun,

             C
Not even the clouds,
