                   C/G       D7   G-D7-C/G-G-D7-C/G 
The hillside was a patchwork quilt
       D7            G    C/G
Neatly stitched with tidy hedge
    G         C/G  G     D7  -D7sus4-D7
And crumbling grey stone wall
 
 
    G                    C/G        D7   G-D7-C/G-G-D7-C/G 
The trees were bare, but Spring was near
   D7             G       C/G
To conjure up its endless strings
   G           C/G G  D7    -D7sus4-D7
Of green magic handkerchiefs
 
 
CHORUS:
          C/G                G
Could you only see what I've seen
          C/G                G
You would surely know what I mean
  C/G                                   G
I think I must have caught a glimpse of heaven
 
 
INSTR: G-D-G-G  C/G-G-D-D  G-D-C/G-C/G  C/G ~ ~ ~ G
 
 
  G                  C/G      D7   G-D7-C/G-G-D7-C/G 
A string of diamonds formed a stream
     D7               G        C/G
That tumbled down the daunting cliff
   G       C/G       G   D7   -D7sus4-D7
To sparkle bright on the beach
 
 
CHORUS:
          C/G                G
Could you only see what I've seen
          C/G                G
You would surely know what I mean
  C/G                                   G
I think I must have caught a glimpse of heaven
 
 
INSTR: (way too damn fast for me to catch)
 
 
BRIDGE:
C/G                D7      Am
Newborn lambs that sweetly played
C/G               G
Speckled eggs all newly laid
C/G           D7         Am
But for you I would have stayed
  C/G                                   G
I think I must have caught a glimpse of heaven
