I'm afraid you'll need to use "Manual repeat marks" for this.
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/long-repeats#manual-repeat-marks

\score {
  \relative c' {
    c1
    \set Score.repeatCommands = #'(start-repeat)  % Print a |: bar line.
    c4 d e f
    \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "1."))  % begin volta bracket "1"
    g4 a b c
    \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f) (volta "2.-3.") end-repeat)
    % end volta bracket "1", begin volta bracket "2-3", Print a :| bar line.
    g4 e c2
    \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f))  % end volta bracket "2-3"
    c'1
  }
}


Cheers,
Xavier
