Thanks, yeah I can hear it in my head that way.

I didn´t play that tune too often, I must admit. If I might play it right now, my fingers would got to Ab, somehow I always heard or played it in Ab. Must admit I never saw it written, just played it from ear, maybe inspired by the Sarah version from the 40´. Should give it more playing, indeed. Did Diz play it once ??? cause I´m supposed to play two sets of Dizzy´s music on some occasions in autumn,  and thought one ballad in each set, one might be "Round Midnight", the other " I waited for you."...,so.....did Diz play once "If you could see me now"   so I can "explain" why I choose it for one of the  sets ?
