Ah, the learning Manual, section 3 would probably be a good place to
start for these things. It explains why one uses \new Voice or
\voiceOne, exactly what \voiceOne does, and the different ways of
aligning lyrics to notes using \lyricsto.

Thanks to all of you for your help!
I implemented Robin's solution and got it to work straight away.
I still have some questions though, if anyone has the time and
energy to attempt to answer them!
When should one use \voice ? What is its purpose? I haven't been
using it but maybe I am missing something?
Same question about \lyricsto ? I followed the Learning Manual and
used several \addlyrics (you can see in my original mail). But I
get he feeling that \lyricsto + \voice might give a better
structure, if I could only understand...
Any more help would be welcome!
In the meantime I am overwhelmed by the quality and power of
lilypond as well as the cohesiveness and strength of its user
community! Both are uplifting!
Cheers,
GF.

how to get that out in a midi file that plays properly, and only
the melody not the lyrics and chords?
You can get the midi output to do repeats, but it won't know about
the D.C.
So give it a helping hand by defining
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
myNotesDC = { \repeat volta 2 \notesOne \repeat volta 2
\notesBridge
\alternative {
{\notesBridgeEndA}
{\notesBridgeEndB}
}
\relative c'
\notesOne
\notesCoda
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
and then set up a separate score block, just for the midi.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% MIDI Output
\score { \unfoldRepeats { \relative c' \myNotesDC }
\midi {
\context {
\Score tempoWholesPerMinute = #(ly:make-moment 86 4)
}
}
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Keep the first score block for the sheet music alone i.e. remove
its midi block.
Cheers,
Robin
