Verses for jazz standards

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

“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).
