    Good work.
    I condensed your chart so it could be easily added to the top of the song’s chart.

    Feuilles Mortes INTRO (Yves Montand) - Joseph Kosma

    Best to start new charts using one of the built-in templates instead of a blank page.

    Default All Of Me (Ruth Etting 1931) w-VERSE - Gerald Marks-Seymour Simons

    “All of Me” (1931) by Gerald Marks and Seymour Simons, was introduced on radio by vaudeville singer Belle Baker in 1931; shortly before that performance she had lost her husband and broke down weeping while singing the song.

    This version from Ruth Etting includes the hard to find verse.

    You took my kisses and you took my love
    You taught me how to care
    Am I to be just a remnant of
    a one side love affair
    All you took I gladly gave
    There's nothing left for me to save

    All of me…..

    To emphasize the sad nature of her version she sings a blue-note in the 12th bar of the verse. She repeats this at the end of the tune substituting a iv (Bb-) for the V (C7).
