The song Jada uses the same changes except for the 3rd line where instead of: C / / / |C7 / / / |F / / / |Cdim / / / |,
you would play:C / D7 / |G7 / / / |C / D7 / |G7 / / / |

This progression, or at least a simplified version of it, is a classic standard progression - almost as well used as the standard 12 bar blues progression. Pre-War blues players used it for dozens of songs- countless songs by Blind Boy Fuller for instance.
The G7 at the end of the first line is less common, and Ab7 is commonly used instead of the Cdim - some go for Fm which also has an Ab note for the infectious trademark descending bass run.

There are a number of songs that use this chord progression:
I may have asked this question at one time, but can't seem to locate it.

C / B Bb |A / A7 / |D7 / G7 / |C / G7 / |
C / B Bb |A / A7 / |D7 / / / |G7 / / / |
C / / / |C7 / / / |F / / / |Cdim / / / |
C / B Bb |A / A7 / |D7 / G7 / |C / A / |
D7 / G7 / |C / / / |

These are a few I have come up with:
Bring It On Down - Pink Anderson
How Come You Do Me Like You Do? - Gene Austin
They're Red Hot - Robert Johnson
Boogie - John Hartford
You Can't Tame Wild Women - Bill Boys & His Cowboy Ramblers
Alice's Restaurant - Arlo Guthrie

Can you think of any more?
