About YT Chords
What is YT Chords?
ythords.com is a tool that turns any YouTube song into a full chord sheet in seconds. Paste a YouTube link, choose your instrument: guitar, piano, or ukulele and we do the rest. You get the chords, the lyrics, and even a practice track with the vocals removed, all in one place.
How It Works
- 1
You paste a YouTube URL
Copy the link of any song on YouTube and paste it into the search bar on our homepage.
- 2
We download and analyse the audio
Our system downloads the audio and uses AI to separate the vocals from the music. The clean instrumental track is what we analyse — this gives much more accurate results than working from the full mix.
- 3
We detect the key, BPM and chords
Using music theory algorithms, we find the key of the song (e.g. C Major, E Minor), the tempo (BPM), and the chord progression — with timestamps so you know exactly when each chord changes.
- 4
We convert chords for your instrument
Whether you play guitar, piano, or ukulele, we translate the detected chords into the right fingerings for your instrument, along with a suggested strumming pattern.

You learn with the built-in player
Play along using our interactive player — chords and lyrics scroll in sync with the vocals-removed audio so you can practice at your own pace.
