Default Chord Sheet Maker Application?

Hey guys,

So I am a worship pastor and have lots of chord sheets to borrow from my past worship pastor. However, I want to do a new chord sheet. There is a good version on Ultimate Guitar, but when you print those things out they are so small! Does anyone have a good program to do chord sheets with? Thanks!

It's been a few years since I was involved in music ministry, but my recollection is that if you have a CCLI license, you have access to tools to allow you to do exactly what you're asking for. Perhaps someone who's a bit more current than me can comment.

If you don't have a CCLI license, that raises a whole bunch of other questions.

Do you mean like this:



The text file ChordPro format is accepted by several free programs. Very easy to generate as a text file:

Overview and many links to software:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_(software)

For example:
http://www.chordpro.org/
http://www.chordii.org/
http://webchord.sourceforge.net/ (online version, no chord boxes)

Yes, it's called SongSelect and you can transpose, print, download and integrate into apps like OnSong. Fantastic resource.

I actually use word with a fixed point font file like Lucida Console. I can then scale it to whatever size I like with no issues. Typically I have two basic styles. One called normal for the lyrics and one called Chords for Chords. The Chords are generally a different colour (usually red). Any instructions like "D.C." are usually in another colour.

Thank you. I used it so much back then, you'd think I'd remember what it was called
