You're Nobody 'Til Somebody Loves You - Morgan, Stock And Cavanaugh

 

[storylyricwriter]

Hi--I was learning this song for a jam this week and (to me) there's an error in the default chart. In the bridge, the last two/three measures seemed off as it played through (against what I have as the melody) and--checking some published sheet music--it looks like maybe some of the chords are entered in the wrong measures. I don't know the protocol on using an existing chart and making a minor adjustment, but here (attached) is the adjustment to the bridge and it seems (IMHO) to maybe sound more like it matches the melody. Thanks!

Whose version are you covering?

Now, [channeling Dean Martin] I’m goin' to the couch...
I recall that as a recurring line from his TV show

Hi, Bob: I was basically trying to get the existing chart (I think it's iReal Pro's version in the Jazz collection) into a better place as far as how the bridge measures are set up. Not sure if this chart was intended to echo Dean Martin's beloved recording, but that's the version I certainly associate with the song!

It's always helpful to append version info in the chart's title.
