Bob Z sent me the chart for this tune. It is written exactly as played on the 1955 Chet Baker recording with Dick Twardzik:

Bob says that the pizz and arco bass parts are important -- it's not just a "melody over changes" tune, as with most of his compositions, but the actual parts are written out more than most composers tend to do. Obviously, you can play it anyway you want -- in later years, Baker recorded it several more times, but he changed both the melody and a few of the chords, making them a bit more "conventional" (to my ear, anyway). In Bob's chart, bars 3-4 are both d-minor, which makes for a somewhat bumpy transition to A-flat in measure 5 -- but that's obviously the sound he was looking for. The recording with Twardzik is pretty much exactly as in Bob's chart.

The first 8 goes like this: Gmin7-b5, C7, Dmin7-b5, same; Ab, Dbmaj7-#11, Gb, F-minor
The second 8 is the same except that the 6th bar is F/A, then Gb, and F-minor.

The bridge goes: f-minor, f-minor/E, F-minor/Eb, D7, Db, Db, Ab, Ab.

Hope this helps! I'm hoping to visit Bob and his wife later in the year.
