About
Chords.me is a small collection of free, browser-based music tools built for the parts of playing guitar that have nothing to do with playing guitar: working out a key change, finding a capo position, printing a clean chord sheet, locking in a tempo, or getting in tune before a set.
Most of these tasks already had answers scattered across the web -- a transposer here, a tuner there, usually behind a sign-up wall, a download, or a page crowded with ads and pop-ups. We wanted one place where a guitarist could open a tool, get an answer in a few seconds, and get back to playing. Chords.me is the result: a handful of focused tools instead of one bloated app.
Every tool on Chords.me runs entirely client-side, directly in your browser. The chord transposer and PDF generator process the text you paste in without sending it to a server or storing it anywhere, and the guitar tuner plays reference tones synthesised locally in your browser — no microphone access required. That keeps things fast, keeps your chord sheets private, and means the tools work just as well on a phone at rehearsal as they do on a laptop at home.
There's no account to create and no premium tier hiding the features you actually need. Open any tool and it's ready to use immediately -- that's deliberate. We'd rather a guitarist spend thirty seconds getting an answer than thirty seconds navigating a sign-up flow.
Chords.me is built for guitarists and bassists working out a set list, music students learning theory by ear, teachers preparing materials for a lesson, and worship teams who need a chart in the right key for Sunday morning with no fuss. If you've ever needed to change a song's key on short notice, you're exactly who this site is for.
