The problem is that the implicit melismata generated by the ties are ignored
in the Devnull context, as described in the 2.11 documentation (Notation
Ref. Section 2.1.4 Specific Lyrics, subsection Lyrics independent of notes).

Note: Use the 2.11 docs instead of the 2.10 docs, they're much better -- and
you ought to consider moving to the latest version.  It's probably less
buggy than the stable version.

The workaround is to put manual melismata in the melody.  Here's an example
for the first tied note:

  % Amado mio
  r4 e a4. c,8 |
  e4. d8~ \melisma d2 \melismaEnd |
  r2 \times 2/3 { d4 e4 f4 } |
  f4. e8 ~ e2 |
  %\break

When you do this, you will get the correct placement of the lyrics both with
the melody and without the melody.

HTH,

Carl

Carl,

If a good way to do this arises from this thread, let's add it to the fretted-strings.itely file for future ref. It was a @TODO when I was rewriting fretted strings but it was something I didn't see the need for (I had the "use a word processor" advice, too) and didn't care enough about it to make a good example. Graham warned me that someone asks about it at least twice a year so let's try to get a good minimal example for the docs from this thread.
