Convert Lead Sheet to guitar tabs or chord charts

• Apr 16, 2019 - 16:10

HI
I'm new to MuseScore, and also new to learning the guitar.
I know nothing about music or the terms used. SORRY :)
i cannot read the lead sheet music but slowly understanding guitar tabs a little easier and guitar chord charts is the easiest.
Is there a way i can import the lead sheet music and then have musescore "rewrite" it for me in guitar tabs or chord charts?
so i don't need to learn the sheet music, just "read" from the tabs or chord charts.
Thank you so much.
I've attached a song i would like to learn, but don't know how to go about it.
Please assist.

Try: File/import PDF without making too many illusions...
If the (experimental) conversion is successful you will have a *.mscz score that you can modify.

Try to copy the piano treble clef and paste it on guitar. I don't know if that's what you're trying to achieve.

You can open instrument (Press i) and select a guitar staff and add a linked staff to see the guitar tablature along with the notes. What is impossible, is to use chord names and have them change to notes, or the other way around. I think this is what you really want. You are going have to learn a little about music to make what you want happen.
