Hi Robert,

Looks like nobody answered this, so let me give you one solution (which is
exactly what you suggested in your question):
%%% SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.25.11"
\layout {
line-width = 4\in
indent = 0
ragged-right = ##f
}
theNotes = {
f'4 4 4 g'
r4 \voices 1,2 <<
\context Voice = "main" { \voiceOne a'-> r4^\> g'8 \noBeam 8\! }
\\
\new Voice = "extra" { \magnifyMusic 0.75 { \voiceTwo \tweak
NoteColumn.force-hshift #1.5 a'4 g' ~ \hideNotes g' } }
>>
}
theLyrics = \lyricmode {
\repeat unfold 4 { \skip 8 }
nicht hast ge
}
extraLyrics = \lyricmode {
\override LyricText.font-shape = #'italic
\override LyricText.X-offset = #-1
al -- drig __
}
<<
\new Staff \new Voice = "main" \theNotes
\addlyrics \theLyrics
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "extra" \extraLyrics
>>
%%% SNIPPET ENDS
I don’t know of a more “proper” way to do this — maybe someone else will
contribute a better (or at least another) answer.
Hope that helps!
Kieren.
