several corrections:

OK for the first verse, but on the subsequent verses the horns play
E7#9 A13 D7#9 G13
x7678x 5x567x x5456x 3x345x
> C Bb
> Bridge: Did you find the directing sign

The Ab is played with an added Bb on top: xx6546
> Ab Bb C D D7#9 D7#9(octave)

The D is actually DaddE for the first couple bars, then Am7/D. And
those horn chords aren't D7#9 at all; rather, they're built up in fourths
from F:
F4/7 (F-Bb-Eb) x888xx
F7#9sus4 (F-Bb-Eb-Ab) x8889x
The jazz break on the LP version is E7#9-A13-D7#9-G13 repeated several
times, then E7#9-Eb7#9-D7#9.
And then the chord progression at the end is
E7#9 A13 [Eb] D7#9 Gmaj7
where the [Eb] is a single note played on trombone.
