Hi Tim,

I've lost where I found it now, so maybe I was just thought I was
still in the documentation on the webpage I was browsing!

It might be there... I'm just surprised that the docs have such a thing (which clearly cause a problem).

But presumably I have to count up the bars and put in the appropriate
number of silent rests? That seems clunky

Another [less radical] option is simply to leave the volta structure *in* your "melody" variable but *remove* it from your "words" variable:

\version "2.12.2"
\include "english.ly"

melody = \relative c' {
  \repeat volta 2 {
    c4 d e f |
  }
  \alternative
  {
    { g1 }
    { c,1 }
  }
}

words = \lyricmode  {
  do re mi fa
  { so }
  { do }
}

\score {
  <<
  \new Staff { \melody }
  \addlyrics { \words }
  >>
}

This should solve your problem (i.e., no spurious repeats) without requiring restructuring of your code.

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
