Hi Vandermyer,

As MusicStudent has pointed out, how you have set out the chord sheet is very unusual. I'm guessing that it came about from copying the notation in a lead sheet. Personally, I always find it better to think of BIAB from the perspective of a performance and not to try and arrange it as a lead sheet. In this regard, my songs are linear. I use no repeats and BIAB plays my songs from beginning to end just as a performer would. It's much easier to work this way and I encourage you to try it.

BIAB actually sets things out from a performance perspective and repeats, 1st/2nd endings, etc., are to used to create leadsheet notation. To see your arrangement as BIAB sees it, you need to disable "Fakesheet | Display Chord Sheet in Fakesheet Mode". See the upper image below.

If your BIAB desktop display is different from mine, use CTRL+T to switch between full-screen and standard views.

With the "Display Chord Sheet in Fakesheet Mode" disabled, your chord sheet will show the 'hidden' bars that BIAB is playing (the lower image where bars 10 - 18 and 24 - 28 are visible). This will then allow you to solve your problem.

Regards,
--Noel

P.S. If you are interested in seeing how a song is laid out linearly, the link below will take you to one of my older songs. This video shows how the chordsheet progresses as the song plays back. (My production skills have grown since I created this song. After re-listening to it now after a few years, I realise that I need to revisit it and re-produce it. Still, I think it's good enough for you to get the idea of what I mean about a linear layout. I've used bars with mixed beats in this work.)
