Hello Daryls,

Your code sample doesn’t contain music, in fact, only chords display 
specifications.

You can take ideas from the example below.

lilyjazz can be found at https://github.com/OpenLilyPondFonts/lilyjazz 
<https://github.com/OpenLilyPondFonts/lilyjazz> .

It should be accessible to LP.

Which OS are you running? In the case of Mac OS X, the font files should reside 
inside LilyPond.app:
