lyrics can contain markup. And markup can contain accidentals.

Thanks for the examples. These suggestions work great!!! I can
now place lyrics that are independent of notes.
Now I would like to know how to include accidentals in the lyrics.
The lyrics have the note name so I want to be able to add lyrics
such as F# or Bb using the sharp and flat font chars.

Okay, here's two possibilities. One uses devnull and the other uses
manual lyric placement. As far as I can tell, they both achieve the
same result.
\version "2.12.2"
voice = { r4 r r r }
lyricrhythm = \tag #'lyricrhythm { c''4 c c c }
lyr = \lyricmode { I like my cat! }
<<
\new Staff <<
\voice
\new Devnull="nowhere" \lyricrhythm
>>
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "nowhere" \lyr
>>
voicetwo = { r4 r r r }
lyric = \lyricmode {
\set associatedVoice = #"voicetwo"
I like my cat!
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff \new Voice = "voicetwo" \voicetwo
\new Lyrics \lyric
>>
}

I tried modifying this example from the manual:
voice = {
c''2
\tag #'music { c''2 }
\tag #'lyricrhythm { c''4. c''8 }
d''1
}
lyr = \lyricmode { I like my cat! }
<<
\new Staff \keepWithTag #'music \voice
\new Devnull="nowhere" \keepWithTag #'lyricrhythm \voice
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "nowhere" \lyr
\new Staff { c'8 c' c' c' c' c' c' c'
c' c' c' c' c' c' c' c' }

I changed the d''1 to an r1, but the word cat does not print at
all. If I add another note after the rest, the word cat appears
under that note.

I'm helping a friend with an instructional booklet for his ukulele
music. I'm using \lyricmode to add note names to the notes in the
melody and would like to add the word "rest" on the lyric line
when there is a rest in the melody. However, \lyricmode "ignores"
the rest event.
I code the following note sequence in the melody:
c8 b8 a8 b8 c4 a4 | b4 b4 b4 r4
and I code the following for \lyricmode:
C B A B C A B B B
How can I get the word "Rest" to print under r4 on the same line
as the note names on the lyric line?
Thanks,
Keith Luke
Hi, you'll want to look in the Notation Reference under Lyrics
independent of notes.
HTH,
James
