I wish you could incorporate rhythm/bars on top of the lyrics along with the chord symbols. I've been playing guitar since 2005, and I still find it exceedingly difficult to play chords along with lyrics without some kind of rhythmic reference, even if I know the song pretty well.

This is an incredibly important feature to me. It's coming, but I want to be sure to get it right. It will also enable some other really useful features like entire song play-through. Thanks for the feedback!

Yea, I can imagine how it'd be hard to implement. I guess you'd have to tie the lyrics to rhythm, as well, and at that point you're pretty much implementing sheet music features.

Exactly my thoughts! I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad direction to go, I just want to make sure I do it the right way.
