changes for russian lullabye

Greg,
What changes do you use on Russian Lullabye? I am having a hard time finding that tune in any of the Real books. Even the Irving Berlin books I have seen don't have it.

I am really looking forward to your forthcoming Aleman book.

Thanks

Here's the chart from the old Gadjodrom site.

Thanks. I played it through a couple of times and it seems to work. I especially like the bridge.

i love this tune, first heard it on the grisman/ garcia disc, then on the oscar aleman disc, are these the same changes as on the grisman cd, i'm not getting it to sound right. i thought jerrys solos on this song sounded so uncharacteristic, seems like he lifted some of them verbatim, remember the old line about good artists have influences, great artists steal ? thank you

There's a more Grisman-y take here:

Hope that helps,
