A little obscure, but the "B" part to Wrap Your Troubles In Dreams  
and You Took Advantage Of Me are the same progression. They are also  
the same as the "A" part to Hoagy's "New Orleans".

No doubt, everyone knows about Rose Room and In A Mellow Tone.

Then of course, there's the myriad of tunes you can play over the  
chords to Bill Bailey, including:
Trio of Tiger Rag
Chiribiribin
C'est Magnifique
Around the World
Over The Waves
Bourbon St. Parade
King Chanticleer (just kidding!)

. . .  ad infinitum
