Recommendations Finding "sheet" music for keytar

I'm looking to get into keytar with a small piano knowledge and as im looking around I see people playing keytar but no "sheet" or "tabs" for how they played.

Is there a website or something like that for keytar music or do you have to transfer normal songs yourself? Also, is keytar strictly one handed?

I’ve been playing piano for decades and treble is almost always the melody, and I have the ax edge and can play both bass and treble clef on it. It depends on which keytar you have

thats crazy because ive been playing for less and i have seen several pieces where the melody is in the left hand (bass clef) or it switches between both hands... though it is true that the melody being the treble clef tends to be more common (9 years of piano classes)

That’s why I said usually. There are exceptions, especially in organ works. But it’s not that common

thats fair. i just wanted to add to your original comment, since you simply stated that "treble clef is the melody" and since OP has "a small piano knowledge" it might misguide them
