AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Chords and Lyrics is a newly-listed WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Post category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. no published reviews yet means feature claims are unverified by the wider merchant base. Without a published review base, the only fit-signal available is the developer's own documentation plus the marketplace's listing-quality audit (linked below). Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +Published by rlisle — established developer track record
Cons

How Chords and Lyrics works
Show full descriptionShow less
This plugin assists in the creation of staffless lead sheets, also called chords sheets.
It defines a [chordsandlyrics] shortcode which can be used in your post or page text.
It does not require any editing of your template files.
Text appearing between the [chordsandlyrics] and [/chordsandlyrics] tags will be
formatted for chord symbols written in square brackets (eg. [Cmaj]) embedded
inline within lyrics.
It will then display the chord symbol at the same horizontal position above the lyrics.
For example:
[C]Oh [F]say can you see…
will be reformatting using HTML table to display as
C F
Oh say can you see…
with the C correctly positioned over “Oh” and the F positioned over “say”.
The commonly used alternative is to use fixed fonts which isn’t very attractive.
This syntax is similar to the that used by ChordPro/Chordii.
Features:
Format lead sheets, keeping chord symbols above the correct lyric.
Appearance options page allows each end user to select Lyrics only
or Chords And Lyrics display via their profile (user’s option page).
Directions for Use
Create Posts or Pages containing the [chordsandlyrics] … [/chordsandlyrics] tags.
Embed chord symbols within square brackets inline with lyrics within these tags.
For example:
[chordsandlyrics]
[C]Mary had a little lamb, [G]little lamb, [C]little lamb.
[C]Mary had a little lamb whose [F]fleece was [G]white as [C]snow.
[/chordsandlyrics]
Note that chords can appear in the middle of lyric words.
