upper = \transpose c c' { \time 3/4 c4 e g | c e g | c e g }

verseOne = \lyricmode { One two three | four and six | seven }

\lyricsto lyricsRhythm \new Lyrics \verseOne
\lyricsto lyricsRhythm \new Lyrics \verseTwo

Note: I had to add
\relative c'' { ... }
to avoid warnings ("ignoring too many clashing note columns").
