Thanks for sharing previously unposted songs.

It's best to share NEW (to the forums) songs ONE AT A TIME (in the most appropriate forum) in their own (titled) thread to make them easy to find, download and discuss.

Share different versions of already posted tunes in the discussion thread for that song.
Please use the search feature (magnifying glass icon at the top of the page) to check before posting.
If there's not already a discussion thread for that title, you can start one. (Title: <song title - composer name(s)>)

It's often easiest to start a chart with a template and then delete any unused measures.

Charts are easier to follow when measures are the same size. (if space permits)
Whenever possible, I prefer to use a template that has either 4, 4-space measures in a line (system) or 8, 2-space measures in each line. Sometimes to save space, I'll mix them, but for the musician trying to follow the chart on the fly, it's best to keep charts as "square" as possible.
The player-feature can follow an "ugly" chart and sometimes because of limited space on the single page, you have to compromise.

By using S and N in the editor (small/normal) chords can be made more readable in crowded measures. *Remember, each N or S applies to all subsequent chords in the chart. When you use S to make a couple of adjacent chords fit better, please use N on the next chord to reset the rest of the chart.
