How to generate a song's chord sheet

If you can’t find a chord sheet, start with an audio file or a YouTube link and check the result in Cifra Agora.

From recording to chord sheet in three steps

  1. Choose the recording you want to play

    Use a version with clearly audible vocals and instruments. Live performances, remixes and tutorials may differ from the studio version.

  2. Upload the audio or paste the link

    Open the generator on the home page, choose your input and follow the progress in the tool.

  3. Check the sheet against the recording

    Check lyrics, key and chord changes. Correct your version, transpose if needed and save it to your setlist.

A starting point you can revise

Automatic identification may reuse lyrics already in the catalog. Overlapping instruments, noise and arrangement changes can affect the result. Compare tricky passages with the recording.

For a first test, pick a song whose melody you know. That makes the result easier to check.

SEE WHAT YOU GET

And make your own.

Check the lyrics and chords, adjust the key and organize songs for your next rehearsal.

  • Edit your version: fix words, chords and notes.

Generation is automatic. Check the result against the recording before playing or sharing.

Questions about generating chord sheets

Do I need to know the key first?

You can start without entering a key. Check the detected key and transpose to a comfortable range if needed.

Can I play the generated sheet without checking it?

Compare it with the recording. The tool can miss words, chords and the timing of changes, especially in complex arrangements.

Try it with a song you want to play

Open the generator, choose audio or YouTube, and review the result.
