I totally disagree with pixelspicture1. Compared to other sources (e.g. the guitarguy--who, BTW, provides a very impressive song catalog), this tab is jazzy and evocative. I can just see Sinatra pouring his heart out to Joe at that desolate, smokey bar--a cigarette in one hand and a whiskey in the other..... Well done!!!

I play badly however managed this. yet as a trained singer I followed this and it works very very well. Thank you for making the effort it I'm putting this into my song sheet. Music is always collaborative. Thanks again

Thank you 😊
