Thank you both.  The key piece I was missing was knowing that the Breathing_sign_engraver could be added to Lyrics context. I think I like the tick mark (or something along those lines) because that makes it clear it is just not an oversized apostrophe. This will clue the rhythm guitar person

Adjusting position of breath-marks

I am using breath-marks in a piece.  Unfortunately they are not always positioned very well (in my view) in the X direction. Using something like "\override BreathingSign.X-offset = #1" simply doesn't work.  Specifying the context in the override doesn't help.  I don't un

What's wrong with \breathe? Note that a breath mark will break an autobeam, unlike your example. You can override this, but isn't that the point of a breath mark, to separate things? You could always just override the breath mark symbol as per the NR. Put whatever text mark you like. \relati
