Chord changes for John Coltrane's Straight Street. The form is unusual because although it uses the 'AABA' structure, the A and B sections are 12 bars in length rather than  more usual 8 bar lengths.

Printable GIF image of the score for this progresssion. Please note that the eighth chord of the bridge is actually a C13(b5) rather than a C7(b5) as notated.
