> I'm not aware of any mechanism that allows you to place text arbitrarily
on the page. However, if you have your page laid out roughly how you'd like
and there is room to place text in some whitespace, you can do something
like this (warning! it's a band-aid, not necessarily a solution):
chorus = {
\once \override TextScript.extra-offset = #'(X . Y)
g_\markup { \with-dimension #'(0 . 0) #'(0 . 0) \myText } a b c d \break
}
and then adjust X and Y to move your text to the approximate desired
location. You might try it with or without the "\with-dimensions ..." part
to see which way works better for you.
HTH a little,
