Guitar Solo B Em B Em Gm Cm Gm People are strange when you're a stranger Cm Gm D Gm Faces look ugly when you're alone Gm Cm Gm Women seem wicked when you're unwanted Cm Gm D Gm Streets are uneven when you're down
When you view the song entered either by the format in Figure 2 or Figure 1, it will look like Figure 3 when it is viewed in the performance screen, either on the website or the app on a tablet/phone. The advantage to using this direction positioning format is that you can accurately identify the syllable where the chord change should occur. The chord color can be selected in the program’s “Settings” options.

Tips
- Review! You’ll always check the results from these as they’re never going to be perfect.
- Use spaces, never tabs. Tabs are awesome, but squishy things. To your editor they might mean “indent the equivalent of 6 single space characters” whereas on my machines it’s always 4! Since we’re relying on fixed-width columns you need to use spaces.
- To take advantage of Chords-and-Tabs.net’s scrolling and other performing abilities, it is important to keep the line length fairly short. For my 10” tablet, as an example, I try to keep line lengths to about 45 characters, max. That way I have some ability to increase the text size a little.
- Blank lines are free. If a converter is confused and mixes none-chords into your lyrics add some separation, that is, put some blank lines in.
- Chord lines immediately precede their lyrics. Don’t put blank lines between a chord line and its lyrics (unless you want a line of only chords)
