Separating it all is the way we would do it in LilyPond (it's also the way I do it when I write my guitar music. \version "2.16.2" mc = #(define-music-function (parser location myNotes) (ly:music?) #{ \improvisationOn $myNotes \improvisationOff #} ) myChords = \chordmode { s1 e1:7 } myNotes = { a1 \mc{e2.} e'8 c8 } << \new ChordNames { \myChords } \new Voice \with { \consists "Pitch_squash_engraver" } { \myNotes } >> Not exactly the way you want it, but it's the best way I know to do it.
