Iron & Wine - 16 Maybe Less

      Just changed 2 chords from a previous version that had everything else right as far as I can tell. I also
think that in the chorus you can swap a Bm for a D and it sounds nice, but opinions appear to differ on that.

[verse]
D
Beyond the ridge to the left, you asked me what I want
Bm
Between the trees and cicadas singing around the pond
G                                                 A
"I spent an hour with you, should I want anything else?"

D
One grinning wink like the neon on a liquor store
Bm
We were sixteen, maybe less, maybe a little more
G                                               A
I walked home smiling, I finally had a story to tell

[chorus]
G                         A
And though an autumn time lullaby
         D      A       G
Sang our newborn love to sleep
G                     A
My brother told me he saw you there
       D        A         G    A
In the woods one Christmas Eve, waiting

D
I met my wife at a party, when I drank too much
Bm
My son is married and tells me we don't talk enough
G                                               A
Call it predictable, yesterday my dream was of you

D
Beyond the ridge to the west, the sun had left the sky
Bm
Between the trees and the pond, you put your hand in mine
G                                                   A
Said, "Time has bridled us both, but I remember you too"

G                         A
And though an autumn time lullaby
         D      A       G
Sang our newborn love to sleep
G                       A
I dreamt I traveled and found you there
       D        A         G    A
In the woods one Christmas Eve, waiting.
