Seems what you are looking for is here:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/stanzas#stanzas-with-different-rhythms
Where exactly is the documentation unclear about using multiple voices?
This works for me:
<<
\relative c' \new Voice = "vone" {
d2 d4 d
<<
\new Voice = "vtwo" {
\voiceOne
d4 r r
}
{
\voiceTwo
\tiny
d8 (a) a4 d4
\oneVoice
} >>
\normalsize
e8 e
}
>>

What I want is to effectively have two voices in the second bar -- The
first time through fits the d4 r4 r4 e8 e tune and the second uses d4 (
a8) a4 d4 e8 e
I'm copying a sheet that used diminished size notes for the alternate,
so I figured, "OK, use grace notes...." But for some reason that I don't
understand, the a4 generates both a small note _and_ a full size one --
the "curlys" around the a4 d4 were my attempt to force my will -- but
Lilypond politely ignored them.
melody = \relative c' {
\clef treble
\key d \major
\time 2/2
\repeat volta 2 {
d2 \slurDashed d4 ( d) |
d4 ( \grace a8 ) \grace{ a4 d4} r4 r4 e8 e
}
\bar "|."
}
I had tried voices previously, but found the explanations in the
documentation insufficient -- the attempt simply barfed or refused
generate what I expected.
I'm using dashed slurs since it makes more sense if I need to ignore
them in a subsequent verse.
Cheers,

It would be good to understand how to insert an occasional bar with an
alternate voice -- much vocal music uses a consistent chord progression
and accompaniment -- but varies the melody to fit the lyric.
