Dude.interesting version of the song, very jazzy. Check out my version which is kind of a take on Django Reinhardt...my chords : Bm7, Am7, Gmaj6, F#7, A7..very close to yours, we both start in the right chord at least..Bm7. I used 2-5-1 to base my progression...cheers, good job.

I appreciate the lesson but, correct me if Im wrong, I believe you are playing an Emin7 to a D#min7 (not a D to C#) on the second chord proression. This is basically just an inversion of the first chord progression seeing as how an Emin7 is the relative minor chord of Gmaj and a D#min7 is a relative minor chord to an F#maj.

@rocknrollhoochiekoo1 I am not that well schooled in theory lol. I just play it the way I hear it, and many times I am not hearing it correctly haha. Its been a while since I have played this song but you are probably right !
