Default charts and chords

Paul and others:
Would you like to expand a little on charts and chords?
Recently I ran off three versions of Hoagy Carmichael's GEORGIA.
That a song I've played many times and it seems like everyone does the bridge a little differently. One was just plain wrong. I think the guy who wrote it out had had one too many or had been at it too long. The chords started out right but were asigned the wrong number of beats. The second and third were nearly identical, but their bridges were different. Upon closer look I realized that both bridges were very similar and some of the chords were just different voicings. I don't have them before me know, but I think one of them had a Dm7b5 going to a G-7 and other had an Abdim before the G.
