I'm a big fan of Pat Metheny Group ! This is the longest and most complex song I have ever made with JJazzLab, it took me about 30 mn to input chords and fine tune the song parts... 
But I'm satisfied with the result, I had plenty of fun playing along
There are many different parts/ambiances in that song, great melody, great spaces for improvisation, a fantastic outro... It's not easy but don't be scared by the nb of chords, actually harmonically it's not that difficult. For example on the Outro you can improvise over a E minor blues scale throughout the many chord changes.
Don't forget to use the "Play selection" feature to practice some parts of the song.
The song will give the best results with JJazzLab 2 and the JJazzLab SoundFont.
