    Here's a lead sheet of the tune. Hopefully it's something you can use.

    Fred Astaire's wonderful rendition, sung to Ginger Rogers in her bathrobe, with her hair full of shampoo. Wait for his expression at the 2:00 mark, when he turns and sees her in all her glory!

    Lovely tune indeed! I love the Billie Holiday version. Bryan Ferry did a pretty good one too.

    Here's a Bireli and Lazarus version (the visuals aren't much to look at):

    though I agree it's hard to beat the Holiday version.

    Not gypsy jazz, or even remotely trad, but here's my favourite version

    thanks guys
    both versions are good, of course the one of Bireli is more "Gipsy".
    I would like to be able at least to play the chords like him!

    Don't miss Rocky Gresset's version of this tune, off his self-titled album.

    Here is an old stab I took at it. Hope it helps despite my weird charting.
