Jim,

I've been playing around with ABC and elected to use your request as an opportunity to try it out. The chords Rick provided in the other thread are the right chords (of course) but they only include the chorus. Here is the ABC notation for the entire tune minus eight bars of intro during which the guitar is silent. If you use the ABC2Win program or some program that prints charts from ABC files, you'll be all set with a lead sheet and chord names. There are even a few extra chords in this one.

Interesting to note, G seems to be the original key.

I don't know how a jazz player would approach this tune but I would guess that you don't really want the guitar to play four bars of an E7 chord. You probably want to insert suitable substitutes every two beats and sort of follow the melody around. Same for other places where a single chord is indicated for several bars.
