Are you using the (new) chord staff - in this case you write the chords you want in staff notation and they are typeset as chord-names. In this case the rhythm is completely independent, and the example (File->Open->Open Example->Independent Chord Symbols IIRC) shows how to make the chord symbols stop showing. You will notice that you don't need full chords. The note C on its own is the chord C, you need C and E-flat to get Cm and so on. The older method is still there - you have to know the naming convention: I am almost completely ignorant about the subject - I have read a little in the LilyPond documentation where the notation is discussed. It is also possible to change the naming convention for chords (there are apparently many of them). Again the LilyPond manual will give the syntax, which will need inserting - ask if you need help doing this.
