Hello Mats, hello Jack!
Thank you very much for your helpful answers to my request.
Based on Jacks example-template I made the next steps forward. But I
still have a problem to add several verses to my score.
Of course - the basic example from the DOCs is working for me.
But in this case I have a chorus with a single line of text first and
three verses after that. Jack, you used fix positioned text for further
verses but because I want to use this template for several layouts I
would like to avoid this to save editing-time. ;-)
Find attached my template. Sorry for sending template in full - but I
don't want to shorten the wrong lines.
My two concrete problems are:
- How to print out/show all three verses?
- Why are there many unwanted "-" in the Score (i.e. bar 18/19, 23, 26,
...)?
Thank you and kind regards!

Take a look at the section on Divisi lyrics in the manual, which shows a
very similar situation. Exactly the same principle can be used for your
case.

Hello Lilypond-users!
I used music-printing with my Windows-sequencing-software since several
years until I "met" Lilypond yesterday.
Wow - I am deeply impressed about this software! I spent several hours
(and a part of the night...) to understand the basics and to print my
first layout.
Printing vocals with chords and lyrics was successful now. ;-)
But I can't find a solution for printing a leadsheet like this:
- chorus (including "\repeat", chords, one line lyrics)
- verse (including chords, 3 lines lyrics for 3 verses)
I had a look at the examples and snippets but I can't find an example
for that. I would suggest that this is no major problem for this great
software, isn't it? ;-)
Do you have any hints or template for me?
Thank you in advance,
kind and musical greetings,
Jens
