Topic: Chordie..the best thing since the WWW was invented?
I hope you don't mind if I have an opinion having just found Chordie.com and discovering what browsing is all about. The setup and intelligence put into this site is phenomenal. Within minutes of discovering Chordie.com I confess to being beaten; my own miserable 4500 down-loadable songs using any browser is paled into insignificance.
if any of you clever dicks might have a rampage to see if there's anything worth grabbing then please be my guest. Great Blues songs and Appalachian stuff, as is my want; plus a lot grabbed from public domains. However I have no control over the server it's on, and it will surely vanishit one day.
Here is what I said to friends about you, need I say more?
Hi guys
I was given this website for Tabs and Lyrics and it’s truly impressive. It has just about every tune you can think of, but more importantly it has transpositions and tab for different instruments but also chord grids, what more could you want? Well it has even more, if you select the print option it gives you a preview for A4 size and you can select text size to fit, and whether you want the chord grids or not….too good to be true! Ideally though, print outs should be on a colour printer and I only have black & white.
As a tough example I choose here ‘Ain’t Misbehavin’ for guitar which was in E and I transposed it to D as how we do it:

For me trying to transpose on the hoof on the Ukulele in D tuning this is a godsend, and it shows me where to put my mits too.
See you later at pracky.
