I Got Rhythm - Django Reinhardt
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by:Robot Monster
Tuning:Standard
Here's a good simple song for anyone who's just starting jazz guitar, basic AABA format.
I don't think Django originally recorded it, but his is the version I learned it off of.
