Overview
Display song lyrics alongside YouTube videos with a clean, scrollable panel.
YouTube Lyrics Viewer adds a beautiful lyrics panel right inside YouTube, so you can follow along with any song without leaving the page. SYNCED LYRICS Lines highlight in real-time as the music plays — like karaoke. The active line glows blue while past lines fade and upcoming lines wait. Lyrics auto-scroll to keep the current line in view. SMART SONG DETECTION The extension reads the video title and intelligently tries multiple search strategies to find the right lyrics — handling formats like "Artist - Song (Official Video)", quoted titles, and more. If auto-detection misses, use the built-in search bar. CLICK TO SEEK Click any lyric line to jump to that moment in the song. Perfect for replaying your favorite verse. AUTO-SCROLL WITH MANUAL OVERRIDE Lyrics scroll automatically during playback. Scroll manually anytime — auto-scroll pauses for a few seconds, then resumes. Click the pause notice to resume immediately.
