Your songs as a tidy chord-chart book. Print a stack for your next jam or workshop, or sell them at the merch table at your gig.
What is this? A living chord book for the bluegrass jam, the tunes passed down ear to ear. Look one up, make the chart your own, write your own songs, build a set, and print a real songbook to pass around the circle. Free to use. Printing a finished songbook costs a credit.
Quick start: tap a song to read its chart. ♭/♯ change the key. ✏️ Edit fixes the chords or adds your own words. ＋ New song writes your own. Songbook… prints the book.
＋ New song (in the Library): write the words with the chords sitting right above them, build a chord chart, or do both. It saves to your library and prints in your book like any other tune.
Share a song: open a song, tap ⋯, then 🔗 Share this song. The link carries the whole chart and words, so a friend who opens it gets the song added to their own library. 📋 Copy as ChordPro gives you plain text to paste into Discord or a forum. Nothing is stored on a server.
🤝 Shared set: start one from your setlist and send the link. Everyone can add songs all week (with their name on each), and nobody can remove anyone else's. Later, tap “Make it my setlist”, tidy it up, and print.

is a shared set. Everyone with the link builds it together.
Cover, note and contents stay up front; index and back cover stay at the back. Reorder the middle, or slip in pages of your own.
A page of plain text set in the book's style: the story of the jam, thank-yous, house rules. A blank line starts a new paragraph.
A setlist file (.setlist.json) holds this whole set: songs, your charts and lyrics, keys, page setup. Back it up or send it to a friend. For everything at once, use ? → Download backup.
Look up the tunes, build tonight's set, pass it round the circle. When it's sitting right in the pocket, make it real: a proper printed book every picker can hold.
