I would like to place the letter "T" above the strings fretted with my thumb. 
This is usually only the low E string.  Some chords require five fingers. 
Other chords are more conveniently played with the thumb on the low E.

Here is a picture I edited with an external program to include the letter
"T" above the low E string:

I am looking for the simplest solution, not necessarily the most efficient. 
I have scoured the web, and have not found a satisfying method to achieve
this.  Any help is appreciated.  Below is a minimal working example.
