How to Request a Song You Can’t Find on ChordTune

At ChordTune, we’re building more than just a chord and lyrics site—we’re creating a platform shaped by the musicians who use it. That’s why we offer a unique feature that most chord sites don’t: personal song requests.

If you’ve ever searched for a song only to come up empty, you’re not alone. Many chord websites rely on user uploads or outdated databases. At ChordTune, we give you the power to request the songs you love, and we’ll do our best to add them—accurately and cleanly formatted for easy playing.

Here’s how the process works and why it’s one of the best features we offer.


🎵 Why Song Requests Matter

You shouldn’t have to settle for half-finished chords, incorrect lyrics, or missing capo info. Unfortunately, that’s what you often get from sites that don’t let users submit suggestions.

ChordTune’s request system helps us:

  • Add more of the songs users actually want

  • Keep our library relevant and up to date

  • Deliver clean, easy-to-read chord sheets

  • Support a wide variety of genres and playing levels

Whether it’s an underrated indie hit, a throwback tune, or the latest release, we believe everyone deserves to play the songs they care about.


📩 How to Request a Song on ChordTune

We’ve made it quick and simple. To request a song:

  1. Visit ChordTune.com

  2. Scroll to the bottom of the homepage

  3. Click the link that says “Request a Song”

  4. Fill out the form with:

    • Song title

    • Artist name

    • Optional notes (like “prefer capo version” or “easy chords please”)

  5. Click submit—and we’ll take it from there

You don’t need to create an account or pay anything. Requests are free and open to all users.


🕐 How Long Does It Take?

We process requests on a rolling basis and try to prioritize:

  • Songs that are frequently requested

  • Popular tracks not yet in our library

  • Songs with clear structure and formatting potential

Typically, your requested song will be added within 7–10 business days, depending on complexity and demand.


🎸 What Makes Our Song Sheets Different

When you request a song on ChordTune, you’re not just getting a basic chord dump. You get:

  • Accurate chord progressions

  • Properly aligned lyrics

  • Transpose-friendly format

  • Capo options and suggestions

  • Clear, clean layout ready for mobile or desktop

This means you can start playing immediately—without having to fix awkward formatting or guess where the chords go.


💬 Real Requests, Real Results

Some of the most-used songs on ChordTune today came from user requests. We’ve added:

  • Niche acoustic covers

  • Live performance versions

  • Fan favorites from non-English artists

  • Simplified arrangements for beginners

We’ve even added a few songs with multiple versions (e.g., full chord sheet + beginner-friendly version) based on feedback.


✅ Tips for a Successful Request

Want to make sure your song gets prioritized? Try this:

  • Be specific with the title and artist

  • Mention if you want easy chords, barre chord version, or capo suggestions

  • Let us know if you prefer studio or acoustic/live versions

  • If it’s urgent for a gig or event, say so—we may be able to fast-track it

The more details you give, the better we can format your song the way you want it.
