This tune is another great example of a pop tune with the chord changes of an American Songbook Standard. There is however a big difference in the rhythmic aspect of approaching this tune as it has a contemporary groove with a bit of swing feel. I walk you through the two approaches I usually take on a tune like this (thank you George Benson) and discuss all of the harmony from top to bottom. Includes a super fun backing track and PDF with great examples in notation and tab. Enjoy!
