Some notes about the composition as found on
www.jazzguitar...
Composer: Ray Henderson
Lyricist: Mort Dixon
Year: 1926
Origin: Published by Jerome H. Remick in 1926.
Style: Usually taken at a medium-up tempo swing.
Form: A1-A2-B-A3 (32 Bars) [8-8-8-8]
Verse: A-A-B-A (32 Bars) [8-8-8-8]
Seldom played. The first recording by Sam Lanin’s Orchestra features an instrumental rendition of the verse, and Gene Austin was the first vocalist to record it the same year. Several other recordings from 1926 also feature it, from the likes of Josephine Baker, Irving Kaufman, and Nick Lucas to name a few.
Key: Usually played in F Major, however many early recordings take varying keys.
Harmony/Overview: The simplicity of the melodic content gives this composition an almost 'folk-song' aesthetic. The harmony is also especially diatonic and remains very conservative throughout. Although it was not used on the original recording, the beginning of the bridge is often played with descending Dominant 7th chords. Miles Davis’ recording from his 1957 release ‘Round About Midnight has been very influential for generations of jazz musicians, and he begins the bridge with an elongated IIImi7b5 - VI7 which resolves to IImi7 in the 5th bar. He then finishes the section by inserting a II - V of bIII before the final II - V back to the tonic.
Recordings: This song has been recorded over 440 times and was first recorded in 1926 by Sam Lanin’s Dance Orchestra. Ultimately, Miles Davis’ 1956 recording is responsible for solidifying the song’s lasting influence amongst jazz musicians, and his rendition has been highly influential in the way countless generations have approached the tune since.

Shame....I was expecting the Miles version...but no intro?...The rest is good though. :-)
No intro! Just his changes in the bridge and a tag ending, thanks!
