When you post changes, you should post them in 4 bar phrases.
It's impossible for someone else to read when you put them on one

Well here is an old post I made on this tune. These are
just basic changes for the tune.

F6 | | Fdim7 | |
F6 | Abdim7 | Gmi7 | D7 |
Gmi7 | D7 | Bbmi7 | Eb7 |
F A7 | D7 Dmi7,G7 | Gmi7 | C7 |
F6 | | Fdim7 | |
F6 | Abdim7 | Gmi7 | D7 |
Gmi7 | D7 | Bbmi7 | Eb7 |
F A7 | D7 Dmi7,G7 | Gmi7 | C7 |
F6 | |

The Bbmi7/Eb7 sequences can be replace by Gmi7b5/C7 .
