A music-practice app that scrolls chord-and-lyric charts at a chosen tempo, then gradually hides chords as you play.

Musicians memorizing chord-and-lyric charts
Worth noticing
A tap briefly reveals a hidden chord without undoing progress; roman-numeral degrees stay fixed when the song is transposed.

Field notes

Charts use one lyric line per row, with chords placed in brackets where they fall in the words. The page describes a count-in, on-screen beat markers, selectable metronome sounds, and controls for meter, tempo, and bar length; it also says songs remain in the browser when signed out. A linked public archive is presented as containing traditional and public-domain songs alongside originals shared by their writers.
