Workshop Lyric Sheet Instructions

Please format your lyrics using the following:

  • Font: Times or Times New Roman
  • Title: 24 pt
  • Songwriter name: 18 pt italics
  • Song body: 11 pt

Other consideration

  • Do not use punctuation (i.e.: periods, question marks, commas, exclamation marks, etc.) at the end of the lines of the song.
  • Song sections: use indentation to mark song sections instead of labeling with [verse], [chorus], or [bridge].
  • Remove chord symbols above lyrics.
  • For your verse lines write a complete thought on a single line instead of breaking it up based on how you sing it.
  • Try to fit the whole song on one page
