Roy inspired this thread... Just to clarify the difference. Most musicians use lead sheets. Sheet music is sold to the general public. Although "lead Sheets" have variations. This is the typical one: ![[Linked Image]](http://schicksville.com/Lead%20Sheet.jpg) Best, John  I do all my charts, sans guitar chords. Just the symbols, melody and lyrics. I like having my tunes on paper. But, for many country songs I wonder why it even makes sense, since the melodies are often verbose and nuanced, not like songs with big notes ( such as Somewhere Over The Rainbow or 'Crazy' or the song in your example ). To my way of thinking, if the song is such that it works well instrumentally, that's the time to put it in lead sheet form.

"We are all millionaires, billionaires even, because right now we have today. And today is worth more than all the wealth we can imagine. So spend today wisely. Spend tomorrow wisely. Enjoy the wealth of today, and realize it is worth far more than all the money and possessions of tomorrow and beyond." -Brian Austin Whitney
