As Mats said, I tried the \property lines, but it gave error in lilypond
2.6.
Isn't there an easier way to find what how to change the chord font size
than to get an old version of lilypond, & then convert to to 2.6 especially
that I'm working on Windows & I didn't find an already compiled binary
See the section on Vertical spacing, which describes how to change

Whenever you find an answer in an old email, find out what LilyPond
version it was written for. Then, make a temporary .ly file containing
\version "2.0.0" % or whatever version the answer applied to
and the lines of code.
Then, run
convert-ly -e temp.ly
and see what the code should look like with
There are old threads dealing with this.
